Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming

Lo, how a rose e'er blooming
From tender stem hath sprung!
From Jesse's lineage coming
As those of old have sung
It came, a flower bright
Amid the cold of winter
When half-spent was the night

Isaiah 'twas foretold it
This rose I have in mind
With Mary we behold it
The virgin mother kind
To show God's love aright
She bore to us a savior
When half-spent was the night

Lo, how a rose e'er blooming
From tender stem hath sprung!
From Jesse's lineage coming
As those of old have sung
It came, a flower bright
Amid the cold of winter
When half-spent was the night

Isaiah 'twas foretold it
This rose I have in mind
With Mary we behold it
The virgin mother kind
To show God's love aright
She bore to us a savior
When half-spent was the night
