Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming

Author: Theodore Baker, 1851-1934 Hymnal: JS2012 #302 (2012) Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming From tender stem hath sprung! Of Jesse's lineage coming, As those of old have sung. It came, a flower bright, Amid the cold of winter, When half spent was the night. 2 Isaiah 'twas foretold it, This Rose I have in mind, With Mary we behold it, The Virgin Mother kind. To show God's love aright, She bore to us a Savior, When half spent was the night. 3 O Flow'r, whose fragrance tender With sweetness fills the air, Dispel in glorious splendor The darkness ev'rywhere; True man, yet very God, From sin and death now save us, And share our ev'ry load.

That we who know your favor May serve you as our King; And whether our tomorrows Be filled with good or ill, We'll triumph through our sorrows And rise to bless you still: To marvel at your beauty And glory in your ways, And make a joyful duty Our sacrifice of praise.

God who comes for such as these Seeks and saves the fearful; Deaf ears, hear the silent tongues Sing away their weeping; Blind eyes, see the lifeless ones Walking, running, leaping. 4 There God's highway shall be seen Where no roaring lion, Nothing evil or unclean Walks the road to Zion: Ransomed people homeward bound All your praises voicing, See your Lord with glory crowned, Share in his rejoicing!

Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Hymnal: JS2012 #544 (2012) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 O Father, all-creating, Whose wisdom, love, and pow'r First bound two lives together In Eden's primal hour, To these who come before you, Your earliest gifts renew: A home by you made happy, A love by you kept true. 2 O Savior, guest in Cana Of old in Galilee, May these who ask your blessing Your loving presence see. Their store of earthly gladness Transform to heav'nly wine, And teach them, in the testing, To know your gift divine. 3 O Spirit of the Father, Breathe on them from above, So mighty in your pureness, So tender in your love; That, guarded by your presence, From sin and strife kept free, Their hearts may seek your guidance, And love you faithfully. 4 Unless you build it, Father, The house is built in vain; Unless you bless it, Savior, The joy will turn to pain; But none can break the union Of hearts in you made one; The love your Spirit blesses Is endless love begun.
