Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden, sprung in completeness where God’s feet pass. 3 Mine is the sunlight! Mine is the morning born of the one light Eden saw play! Praise with elation, praise every morning, God’s recreation of the new day! Languages: English Tune Title: BUNESSAN

Yea, everywhere, above, below, is perfect praise. 3 The spirit floweth free, high surging where it will; in prophet's word did speak of old, and speaketh still. The Torah rests secure, and changeless it shall stand, deep writ upon the human heart, on sea, on land. 4 Eternal life hath God implanted in the soul; such love shall be our strength and stay while ages roll.
