Lo How A Rose Eer Blooming 5 Lyrics

1. A spotless Rose is blowing,
Sprung from a tender root,
Of ancient seers' foreshowing,
Of Jesse promised fruit;

Its fairest bud unfolds to light
Amid the cold, cold winter,
And in the dark midnight.

2. The Rose which I am singing,
Whereof Isaiah said,
Is from its sweet root springing
In Mary, purest Maid;

For, through our God's great love and might,
The blessed Babe she bare us
In a cold winter's night.

Alternate:
Through God's great love and might
The Blessed Babe she bare us
In a cold, cold winter's night.
