Lo,
how a rose e’er bloom
ing
From
ten der
stem
hath sprung!
Of
Jes se’s lin eage com
ing
As
men of
old
have sung.
It came a flow’r et bright,
A mid the cold of win
ter,
When
half spent
was
the night.
I
sai ah ’twas fore told
it,
The
Rose I
have
in mind.
With
Mar y we be hold
it,
The
Vir gin
Moth
er kind.
To show God’s love a right,
She bore to men a Sav
ior,
When
half spent
was
the night.
This page shows “Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming” by Traditional Carol in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of G at 84 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
