Jesus, Rose of Sharon
I bought an old hymnal today. I've just been really into old hymns lately. They just seem so... pure, so... true. Anyway, this song just really stuck out to me. Figured I'd share it:
"Jesus, Rose of Sharon, bloom within my heart;
Beauties of Thy truth and holiness impart,
That wherever I go my life may shed abroad
Fragrance of the knowledge of the love of God.
Jesus Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance and in love love within my heart.
Jesus, Rose of Sharon, sweeter far to me
Than the fairest flowers of earth could ever be,
Fill my life completely, adding more each day
Of Thy grace divine and purity, I pray.
Jesus Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance and in love love within my heart.
Jesus, Rose of Sharon, balm for every ill,
May Thy tender mercy's healing power distill
For afflicted souls of weary, burdened men,
Giving needy mortals health and hope again.
Jesus Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance and in love love within my heart.
Jesus, Rose of Sharon, bloom for evermore;
Be Thy glory seen on earth from shore to shore,
Till the nations own Thy Sovreignty complete,
Lay their honors down and worship at Thy feet.
Jesus Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance and in love love within my heart..."
