131. Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming

D         G    D    A     Bm  G    D   A   Bm   A    D
Lo, how a rose e’er bloom-ing From ten-der stem hath sprung,

D          G   D    A   Bm  G  D   A  Bm  A    D
Of Jesse’s lin-eage com-ing As men of old have sung.

D  Em    F#m D     E  A
It came, a  flower-et bright,

A    D   G    D  A   B   Em   D    Em    D   A   D
Amid the cold of win-ter When half spent was the night.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
Lo, how a rose e’re blooming
From tenderstem hath sprung,
Of Jesse’s lineage coming
As men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret bright,
Amid the cold of winter
When half spent was the night.

[Verse 2]
Isaiah ’twas foretold it,
The Rose I have in mind,
With Mary we beheld it,
The virgin mother kind.
To show God’s love aright
She bore to them a Savior,
When half spent was the night.
