The Morning Prayer Christians Have Used for 1,600 Years by Saint Ambrose

Christians have been starting their mornings this way for over 1,600 years. Today’s Advent devotion features a morning song written by St Ambrose (340 AD) — a bishop of Milan whose words were described as “sweet as honey to the soul.” This ancient hymn walks us through darkness to light, repentance to renewal, and ends where all Christian worship should — with praise to the triune God. As Christmas approaches, this devotion invites us to place Christ first on our lips, first in our thoughts, and first in our day. 📖 Daily Devotions with Dead People – Advent Edition ▶️ Subscribe for daily Advent reflections 📄 Original text https://www.preces-latinae.org/thesaurus/Hymni/AeterneRerum.html 🌿 Learn more at hertheology.com Follow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.
