"Silent Morn, Holy Morn"

I have written a hymn for use on the Fourth Sunday of Advent, Year C. That's this Sunday, December 23rd. It is sung to the tune for "Silent Night, Holy Night," (or "Stille Nacht" in the original German). It is written in memory of the Reverend Chip Gunsten, the Assistant to the Bishop of the Virginia Synod (ELCA) who died rather suddenly last week. I give my permission to anyone who wants to use it, with acknowledgement.
