| Hymn A & M 538- O MARTYRS young and fresh as Flowers |
1. O MARTYRS young and fresh as
Flowers,
Your day was in its morning hours
When Christ was sought and you
were found
Like rain-strewn petals on the
ground.
2. How weak to hurt you was the
king!
You are Christ‘s morning offering,
His pretty lambs, his children, gay
With martyr-crowns and palms at
play.
3. And you had cheated Herod's rage,
You little boys of Jesus’ age;
For he whom Herod sought to
slay,
Jesus, untouched escaped away.
4. Glory, O Christ the Lord, to thee,
Child of the blessed Virgin, be,
Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Spirit evermore.
