We Are a Garden Walled Around

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7091 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. We are a garden walled around, Chosen and made peculiar ground; A little spot enclosed by grace Out of the world’s wide wilderness. 2. Like trees of myrrh and spice we stand, Planted by God the Father’s hand; And all His springs in Zion flow, To make the young plantation grow. 3. Awake, O, heav’nly wind! and come, Blow on this garden of perfume; Spirit divine! descend and breathe A gracious gale on plants beneath. 4. Make our best spices flow abroad, To entertain our Savior God And faith, and love, and joy appear, And every grace be active here. 5. Let my Belovèd come and taste His pleasant fruits at His own feast: I come, My spouse, I come! He cries, With love and pleasure in His eyes. 6. Our Lord into His garden comes, Well pleased to smell our poor perfumes, And calls us to a feast divine, Sweeter than honey, milk, or wine. 7. Eat of the tree of life, My friends, The blessings that My Father sends; Your taste shall all My dainties prove, And drink abundance of My love. 8. Jesus, we will frequent Thy board, And sing the bounties of our Lord; But the rich food on which we live Demands more praise than tongues can give. Languages: English Tune Title: LEIGHTON

We are a Garden wall'd around

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.LXXIV (1766) Lyrics: 1 We are a Garden wall'd around, Chosen and made peculiar Ground; A little Spot, enclos'd by Grace Out of the World's wide Wilderness. 2 Like Trees of Myrrh and Spice we stand, Planted by God the Father's Hand; And all his Springs in Sion flow, To make the young Plantation grow. 3 Awake, O, heav'nly Wind, and come, Blow on this Garden of Perfume; Spirit Divine! descend and breathe A gracious Gale on Plants beneath. 4 Make our best Spices flow abroad To entertain our Saviour God; And Faith, and Love, and Joy appear, And ev'ry Grace be active here. [5 Let my beloved come and taste His pleasant Fruits at his own Feast, I come, my Spouse, I come, he cries, With Love and Pleasure in his Eyes. 6 Our Lord into his Garden comes, Well pleas'd to smell our poor Perfumes, And calls us to a Feast divine, Sweeter than Honey, Milk, or Wine. 7 Eat of the Tree of Life, my Friends, The Blessings that my Father sends; Your Taste shall all my Dainties prove, And drink abundance of my Love. 8 Jesus, we will frequent thy Board, And sing the Bounties of our Lord; But the rich Food on which we live, Demands more Praise than Tongues can give.
