roy, Perhaps one of these two songs is what you are searching for.
Song 1
1. Lord Jesus, my sweet Rose of Sharon,
My Prophet, my Priest, and my King-
To Thee I will sing all my praises,
For blessings Thy mercy doth bring.
All glory and honor to Jesus,
Who offered His life on the cross,
To open a fountain for sinners,
And purchase a world that was lost.
* Refrain:
Sweet Rose of Sharon,
Blooming above for me.
2. Oh, come help me sing of my Savior,
For He is the joy of my heart;
Come join in His service forever,
He will His rich graces impart.
I gaze at the wounds of my Savior,
From which that great fountain doth flow;
His word is my shield and my buckler,
By faith I'm made whiter than snow.
3. In love's verdant vale I am resting,
In Christ all my hope I confide;
My heart and my life He is blessing,
As humbly I walk by His side.
I'm living low down in the valley,
Where sweet Rose of Sharon doth bloom;
Oh, glory! its heavenly odor
With fragrance my soul doth perfume.
4. Come, sinner, thy heart like the desert,
With sweet Rose of Sharon shall bloom;
'Twill blossom as flowers of summer,
His Spirit thy heart shall illume.
He paid all thy debt on Mount Calv'ry,
He suffered that you might be free;
Oh, look, guilty one, there is mercy,
There's life and salvation for thee.

Song 2. Lyrics to Rose Of Sharon :
(Eliza Gilkyson)

There's a beautiful Rose ever blooming
In the garden of God's love for me;
It has filled all the world with its fragrance,
It will last for eter-ernity.

Rose of Sharon now blooming I see,
Blessed Jesus who died on the tree;
With my whole heart I sing "Hallelujah!"
Rose of Sharon so precious to me.

Precious Savior I'll always adore Thee,
For with Thee no one else can compare;
By thy love so divine I'm enraptured,
Thou art fairer than all of the fair.

Rose of Sharon now blooming I see,
Blessed Jesus who died on the tree;
With my whole heart I sing "Hallelujah!"
Rose of Sharon so precious to me.

Are you lost in your sins-- tired of living,
Is your heart filled with bitterness too?
Come to Jesus the sweet Rose of Sharon,
He has power to make you anew.

Rose of Sharon now blooming I see,
Blessed Jesus who died on the tree;
With my whole heart I sing "Hallelujah!"
Rose of Sharon so precious to me.
