O Root of Jesse, standing as a sign among the peoples;

before you kings will shut their mouths,

to you the nations will make their prayer:

Come and deliver us, and delay no longer.

 

Oh anointed one of Jesse, line of David, who silences kings and comes to liberate, prune my heart and call forth the seedling that you have planted there.

Grow O root!

Bear the fruit that the world needs to truly live!

Come and deliver us, and delay no longer.
