(Also known as King Jesus hath a garden)
It is a version for mezzo, alto and bass.
Lord Jesus hath a garden full of flowers gay,
Where you and I can gather nosegays all the day:
Refrain:
There angels sing in jubilant ring,
With dulcimers and lutes,
And harps and cymbals, trumpets, pipes,
And gentle, soothing flutes.
And harps and cymbals, trumpets, pipes,
And gentle flutes.
There bloometh white the lily, flower of Purity;
The fragrant violet hides there, sweet Humility:
(Refrain)
And one thing fairest is in all that lovely maze,
The gard'ner, Jesus Christ, whom all the flowers praise:
(Refain)
O Jesus all my good and all my bliss! Ah me!
Thy garden make my heart, which ready is for thee!

Lo, how a rose e'er blooming from tender stem hath sprung
Of Jesse's lineage coming, as those of old have sung
It came, a floweret bright, amid the cold of winter
When half spent was the night
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 us a savior
When half spent was the night.
This flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor, the darkness everywhere;
True man, yet very God, from sin and death he saves us,
And lightens every load.
Recorded at St Pio of Pietrelcina Roman Catholic Church, 103 Washington Ave, Lavallette, NJ 08735-2351
