O Come O Come Emmanuel

We enter the Advent days to stand again in the Longing Space

to listen to the stirring of our hearts

to hear the silence of creation, groaning with longing.

We pause together in the Longing Space

to feel the thirst of human pathways

to taste the source of every longing.

We sit together in the Longing Space

to see the darkness trembling

to touch the Rising Sun

at the dawning of the day.

O Come O Come Emmanuel
