EN 2074 We Are a Garden Walled Around

Song.4.16

Versi Version 1

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 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 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.
