"For Unto us a Child is born" or "There is no rose"
For unto us a Child is born
Unto us a Son is given And the government Shall be upon His shoulder And his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor The Mighty God The Everlasting Father The Prince of Peace. |
There is no rose of such virtue
As is the rose that bare Jesu. There is no rose oof such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu. Alleluia. For in this rose contain-ed was Heaven and earth in little space; Res miranda. By that rose we may well see That he is God in persons three, Pari forma. The angels sungen the shepherds to: Gloria in excelsis Deo: Gaudeamus. Leave we all this worldly mirth, And follow we this joyful birth; Transeamus. |
