Lo How A Rose E'er Blooming Lyrics

from "The Soul Felt Its Worth"


Verse 1
Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming,

From tender stem hath sprung.
Of Jesse’s lineage coming,

As men of old have sung.
It came, a flower bright,
Amid the cold of winter,

When half gone was the night.
 

Verse 2
Isaiah ’twas foretold it

The Rose I have in mind.
With Mary we behold it,

The virgin mother kind.

To show God’s love aright,
She bore to men a Savior,

When half gone was the night.

​

Verse 3
This Flower, whose fragrance tender,

With sweetness fills the air.
Dispels with glorious splendor,

The darkness everywhere.
True man, yet very God,
From sin and death He saves us,

And lightens every load.
