"Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming"

My daily referral to Cathouse Chat's Daily Advent Meditation. Today, Romeocat meditates on the beautiful Christmas/Advent song, "Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming". Listen to it here as you read her meditation. Kathleen Battle singing "Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming". Press the play button to listen. Or an instrumental version by Joel Mabus: (Yes, I am playing around with three or so different media players. Eventually I'll settle on one of them or find a different one I like well enough to standardize on. Eventually.) Shamelessly flogged at Bloggin' Outloud.
