Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming
Author: Theodore Baker, 1851-1934 Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.6 Appears in 101 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming
From tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse's lineage coming
As seers of old have sung.
It came, a blossom bright,
Amid the cold of winter,
When half spent was the night.
2 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 us a Savior,
When half spent was the night.
3 O Flower, 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.

Es ist ein Ros entsprungen
Appears in 38 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Es ist ein Ros entsprungen
aus einer Wurzel zart,
Wie uns die Alten sungen,
von Jesse kam die Art,
Und hat ein Blümlein bracht,
mitten im kalten Winter,
wohl zu der halben Nacht.
2 Das Röslein, das ich meine,
Davon Jesaias sagt,
Hat uns gebracht alleine
Marie, die reine Magd.
Aus Gottes ewgem Rath,
Hat sie ein Kind geboren,
Wohl zu der halben Nacht.
3 Das Blümelein so kleine,
das dustet uns so süß.
Mit seinem hellen Schein
Vertreibt die Finsterniß,
Wahr'r Mensch und wahrer Gott,
Hilft uns aus allen Leiden,
Rettet von Sünd und Tod.

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 843 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free,
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with succour speedy
to those who suffer wrong,
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong,
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light
whose souls, condemned and dying,
are precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth,
and love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth.
Before him, on the mountains,
shall peace, the herald, go;
and righteousness in fountains
from hill to valley flow.
4 For him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend,
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
The mountain dew shall nourish
a seed, in weakness sown,
whose fruit shall spread and flourish
and shake like Lebanon.
5 O'er every foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all blessing and all-blest.
The tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand for ever;
the name to us is Love. Topics: Christ Risen Coming Again; Christ Incarnate Promise of the Messiah; Christian Year Advent; Covenant; Freedom and Liberation; God Love of Scripture: Psalm 72 Used With Tune: ES IST EIN ROS' ENTSPRUNGEN

Lo, A Fair Rose Ablooming
Author: Henry S. Coffin; Ambrose W. Vernon Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, a fair Rose ablooming
From tender root hath sprung,
Of Jesse’s lineage coming,
As men aforetime sung;
It bears a Floweret bright,
While reigns the cold midwinter
And darkest is the night.
2 The little Rose I’m singing,
Whereof Isaiah spoke,
Mary to us is bringing,
A maid of humble folk;
By God’s eternal might
For us a Child she beareth,
While darkest is the night.
3 The Floweret is so lowly,
Whose fragrance none can tell,
With brightness strange and holy
Doth all our dark dispel;
True Man, true God is He;
From every ill He saveth;
God grant we saved may be! Used With Tune: ES IST EIN ROS' Text Sources: 15th century carol
