Rose Of Sharon Lyrics - Singles - Eliza Gilkyson

I am a Rose of Sharon 

A lily of the valley 

As a lily grows 

Among the thorns 

Love in this world 

Has found me 

As an apple tree 

Among the trees 

That grow deep in the forest 

My lover's form is comely 

With life and limb most joyous 

Rise up my love and come away 

the rain is over and gone 

Your love is the fruit of my darkest day 

And I am your Rose of Sharon 

His gentle hand lies under my head 

His shoulders turned to face me 

I shall not stir him from my bed 

While he doth so embrace me 

Oh bring me wine to pass the time 

Though none but him can soothe me 

I am my beloved's 

And he is mine 

Desire for his pleasure moves me 

Rise up my love and come away 

the rain is over and gone 

Your love is the fruit of my darkest day 

And I am your Rose of Sharon
