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?
