Spring Hill
( The Lord into his garden's come ; O that this dry and barren ground ; The glorious time is coming on ; The worst of sinners here may find ; Come, brethren dear, who know the Lord ; We feel that heav'n in now begun ; But when we come to dwell above ; 'This there we'll reign, and shout, and sing ; Amen, amen my soul replies )
