    Hi, there's a chant in the Carmelite tradition called Flos Carmeli, translated into English as Flower of Carmel and adapted to the Gregorian melody.

    Flower of Carmel, vine er’er blossoming
    Heaven’s splendor, to you from its great King
    Grace was given, to bear God’s Son and Virgin
    still to be. Grant your children, oh, bright
    Star of the sea, gifts from Heaven.

    Glorious Mother, dear Lady of the place
    Fill your people with joys of your own grace
    In God’s dwelling, key and por tal, op’ning on
    Paradise, lead us to you, where crowned
    Your glory lies, past all telling.

    I'm hoping to find an accompaniment of the English for an event coming up. Does anyone have it handy?
    Thanked by 1CHGiffen

    Credo Catholic Choir has a video that shows an accompaniment.
