1. LO, HOW A ROSE EER BLOOMING

2. Lo, how a Rose eer blooming from tender stem hath sprung! Of Jesses lineage coming, as those of old have sung.

3. It came, a flower bright, amid the cold of winter, when half spent was the night.

4. Isaiah twas foretold it, this Rose I have in mind, with Mary we behold it, the Virgin Mother kind.

5. To show Gods love aright, she bore to us a Savior, when half spent was the night

6. O Flowr, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air, dispel in glorious splendor the darkness evrywhere;

7. True man, yet very God, from sin and death now save us, and share our evry load.
