The Virgin Stills the Crying (EN 3599)

EN 3599 The Virgin Stills the Crying

Luke.2.7

Versi Version 1

1

The virgin stills the crying

Of Jesus, sleepless lying;

And singing for His pleasure,

Thus calls upon her Treasure,

“My Darling, do not weep,

My Jesu, sleep!”

2

O Lamb, my love inviting,

O Star, my soul delighting,

O Flower of mine own bearing,

O Jewel past comparing!

3

My Child, of Might indwelling,

My Sweet, all sweets excelling,

Of bliss the Fountain flowing,

The Dayspring ever glowing,

4

My Joy, my Exultation,

My spirit’s Consolation;

My Son, my Spouse, my Brother,

O listen to Thy mother!

5

Say, would’st Thou heav’nly sweetness,

Or love of answering meetness?

Or is fit music wanting?

Ho! Angels, raise your chanting!
