Jesus, Rose of Sharon,
bloom within my heart;
Beauties of Thy truth
and holiness impart,
That where’er I go
my life may shed abroad
Fragrance of the knowledge
of the love of God.
Jesus, blessèd Jesus,
Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance
And in love within my heart.
Jesus, Rose of Sharon,
sweeter far to see
Than the fairest flow’rs
of earth could ever be,
Fill my life completely,
adding more each day
Of Thy grace divine and purity, I pray.
Jesus, blessèd Jesus,
Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance
And in love within my heart.
Jesus, Rose of Sharon,
balm for ev’ry ill,
May Thy tender mercy’s
healing power distil
For afflicted souls of weary
burdened men,
Giving needy mortals health
and hope again.
Jesus, blessèd Jesus,
Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance
And in love within my heart.
Jesus, Rose of Sharon,
bloom forevermore;
Be Thy glory seen
on earth from shore to shore,
Till the nations own
Thy sov’reignty complete,
Lay their honors down
and worship at Thy feet.
Jesus, blessèd Jesus,
Rose of Sharon,
Bloom in radiance
And in love within my heart.
