Hymn Context Compare
A flowing river and a tree,
Over all earth­ly things;
start
Open now the gates of Heav’n;
Sometimes ’mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Adam’s curse by Christ’s sal­va­tion,
Our Sun­day school, whose gold­en hours
Man was poisoned by the serpent, the knowledge tree he took.
The living God divine
Only a mo­ment of pain;
Whisper of Ed­en, love­ly and bright.
Once God as life supply,
There are songs that with rap­ture are swelling
Golden skies gleam bright above,
start
He has a plan He must fulfill.
Sorrow and sigh­ing shall take their flight,
Yonder saints who burst their tomb;
’Neath the ol­ive-sha­dows grew!
Beneath Thy smile, Thy rod;

Eden

Man to supply with food and drink
Spirit of God, O come,
He’d wreck the Lord’s intention.
Thro’ the birth of Christ the Lord.
By waters still, o’er troubled sea,
O may we, once new cre­at­ed
In thee on earth we learn to live,
Man got fallen with rebellion and corrupted within,
And reaches all mankind;
We shall be­hold them again.
Scatters its ros­es, bloom­ing for aye;
To taste the tree of life requires
There are harps that for­ev­er and ev­er
Praise to Thee, great Lord of Love!
That God before two trees placed man,
Bringing life where’er it goes;
end
To the fe­lon at His side;
Aught that can with you com­pare,
I thank Thee, O my God!
