A ROSE IS BORN TO LILY BLUE

In dark of night made dead by Eden’s sin
A Rose of Sharon born to Lily Blue,
And with them Eden will begin again
With life raised from His grave is born anew.

For Sharon’s Rose will pour His life Blood red
From manger to His Cross o’er all the earth,
And with His Body, Blood we all are fed—
Are taken through His grave to our new birth.

So Jesus is the hope of all the world:
Comes in the black as pitch of Eden’s night,
And swaddling clothes will be grave clothes unfurled,
For truth in Him shows forth His heaven’s light.

We celebrate the birth of Sharon’s Rose
To Lily through whom Eden’s dawn now glows.
