|
<p>Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming from tender stem hath sprung!<br>
|
|
Of Jesse’s lineage coming, as those of old have sung.<br>
|
|
It came, a floweret bright, amid the cold of winter,<br>
|
|
When half spent was the night.</p>
|
|
<p>Isaiah ’twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind;<br>
|
|
Mary we behold it, the virgin mother kind.<br>
|
|
To show God’s love aright, she bore to us a Savior,<br>
|
|
When half spent was the night.</p>
|
|
<p>The shepherds heard the story proclaimed by angels bright,<br>
|
|
How Christ, the Lord of glory was born on earth this night.<br>
|
|
To Bethlehem they sped and in the manger they found Him,<br>
|
|
As angel heralds said.</p>
|
|
<p>This Flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air,<br>
|
|
Dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere;<br>
|
|
True Man, yet very God, from sin and death He saves us,<br>
|
|
And lightens every load.</p>
