There Blooms a Rose in Bethlehem Songtext

von Sovereign Grace Music

There blooms a rose in Bethlehem
From tender stem hath sprung
Of Jesse's line this folwer grows
As men of old have sung
Isaiah told us long ago
About this rose we'd find
In virgin arms we shall behold
The savior of mankind

The glories of the heavens
Surrounded shepherds bright
The angels sang, a sign was shown
The Christ was born at night
What mystery they came upon
The sign the heralds laud
In manger slept the Holy One
In flesh the Son of God

This flow'r in bloom, a scent so sweet
That greet us in the air
It has dispelled with hopefulness
The sting of death's despair
Foretold, this rose was born to die
But would not see decay
So those who place their faith in Him
Shall blossom from the grace
