HYMN Lyrics Text: See How The Rose Of Judah | Christmas Song

1. See how the rose of Judah

from tender branch has sprung,

a rose from root of Jesse

as prophets long had sung.

We sing that hymn again:

to God on high be glory,

and peace on earth to men.

2. This rose of royal beauty

of which Isaiah sings,

is Mary, maiden mother,

and Christ the flower she brings.

By God’s unique design,

remaining still a virgin,

she bore a child divine.

3. We pray Thee, virgin mother,

the queen of heaven and earth

Obtain for us from Jesus

the blessings of his birth.

By his humility,

may we live as God’s children

in peace and unity.
