    Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming
    Author unknown (German origins), translated by Theodore Baker with harmonization melody by Michael Praetorius.

    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.

    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.

    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
    From sin and death He saves us
    And lightens every load
