The Lilly (Of Salvation)

Thousands of freshly cut lilies in bloom Signify life and a promise of peace Three days gone by then they opened the tomb Christ Jesu arise, from sin you release From flower so precious, falls lone raindrop Reminds all who love ye to praise thy name Prince full of glory and love that shan't stop Precious Lord Jesus ye healèd the lame Lilies so white without blemish or mark Son of the Father ye loosèd the chain Heart led by peace, ye destroyed Prince of Dark Death upon Calv’ry, left children unstained Lilly that shines like the Halo of Lamb Lord Jesus, descendant of Abraham
