More musical cheer from Creighton CHoirs' Christmas Concert 

Creighton University's Choirs performed at St. John's Church during their Magic of Christmas concert earlier this month. Both choirs dazzled the crowd with mesmerizing vocals that told the story of Christmas from different centuries and cultures. (We also featured the choirs on Day 16 of the Creighton Advent Calendar, if you missed it).

Please enjoy another one of their performances from the show.

Song title: There is No Rose
Composer: Joel Martinson
 

 

There is No Rose

There is no rose of such virtue as is the rose that bare Jesu; Alleluia

For in this rose contained was Heaven and earth in little space; Res miranda (marvelous thing)

By that rose we may well see that He is God in persons three; Pares forma (of equal form)

The angels sungen the shepherds to: Gloria in excelsis deo; Gaudeamus (let us rejoice)

Leave we all this worldly mirth, and follow we this joyful birth; Transeamus (let us go across from worldly to heavenly things)
