I made a strange advent playlist for anyone else who finds themself in a strange place this advent.I will probably post some more about Advent because it's been a deep well for me these past few years. Like a seed You were sown for the sake of us allįrom Bethlehem's soil grew Calvary's sequoia. You could have saved us in a second, instead You sent a child 'Cause You're the God of greatness, even in a mangerįor all I know of seasons is that You take Your time You can see my promise even in the winter Then if You're not done working, God I'm not done waiting

If all I know of harvest is that it's worth my patience You're the God of seasons, I'm just in the winter I can see the promise, I can see the future Melt the ice of this wild soul 'til the barren is beautiful So like a fire to the snow, I'm renewed in Your warmth So like a low winter sun, so it is with Your loveĪnd as I gaze I am blinded in the light of Your brightness I know, though the winter is long, even richerĪnd though my waiting prolongs, even greater Like a seed in the snow, I've been buried to growįor Your promise is loyal from seed to sequoia Oh how nature acquaints us, with the nature of patience Like the frost on a rose, winter comes for us all
