Another Proposed Modern Catholic Advent Hymn

(Ref.: This post.)

Sons of David (And Daughters of Magdalene)

On a cold-swept mountain near Bethlehem
A crying babe was born
On a broken glacier near Bethlehem
A brand-new Light was born
Born of the House of David
Born for the Magdalene
Born for the Heavens above

Refrain

We were born in a manger
We were born for the stars
We were born of mere humans
We were born to go far

On a cold-swept mountain near Bethlehem
All of us were born
On a broken glacier near Bethlehem
Our new-found Light was born
We're sons of David's House
We're daughters of Magdalene
Born for the Heavens above. R.

God the Father made us for Love
Just like he made his only Son
Made us of Light from the first
So we wait for our making
To be sons of David
Daughters of Magdalene
To live in the Heavens above. R.
