Es ist ein Ros entsprungen

Mezzo-sopranos Tara Erraught and Angela Brower sing this beloved German Christmas Carol.

English translation:

Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming

1. Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming
from tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse’s lineage coming,
as men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret 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 men a Savior,
When half spent was the night.
