All Hail Ye Infant Martyr Flowers Lyrics
1. All hail! ye infant Martyr-flowers,
Cut off in life's first dawning hours:
As rosebuds, snapt in tempest strife,
When Herod sought your Saviour's life.

2. You, tender flock of lambs, we sing,
First victims slain for Christ your King:
Beneath the Altar's heav'nly ray
With Martyr-palms and crowns ye play.

3. For their redemption glory be,
O Jesu, Virgin-born, to thee,
With Father, and with Holy Ghost,
For ever from the Martyr-host. Amen.
