John McDermott - Gesu Bambino lyrics

When blossoms flower e'er 'mid the snows,

Upon a winter night,

Was born the Child, the Christmas Rose,

The King of Love and Light.

The angels sang, the shepherds sang,

The grateful earth rejoiced;

And at His blessed birth the stars

Their exultation voiced.

Chorus:

O come let us adore Him

O come let us adore Him

O come let us adore Him

Christ the Lord.

Again the heart with rapture glows

To greet the holy night,

That gave the world its Christmas Rose,

Its King of Love and Light

Let ev'ry voice acclaim His name,

The grateful chorus swell

From paradise to earth He came

That we with Him might dwell.

Chorus
