A Paradise of fruitful ground,
Chosen by love and fenced by grace
From out the world's wide wilderness.
2 Like trees of spice his servants stand,
There planted by his mighty hand;
By Eden's gracious streams, that flow
To feed their beauty where they grow.
3 Awake, O wind of heav'n and bear
Their sweetest perfume through the air:
Stir up, O south, the boughs that bloom,
Till the beloved Master come:
4 That he may come, and linger yet
Among the trees that he hath set;
That he may evermore be seen
To walk amid the springing green.
Amen. Scripture: Song of Solomon 4:16 Used With Tune: LEIGHTON
