Enchantment of New Eden

Enchanted are the woods in which we live,
And mountains, meadows stretch between them wide
With rivers, lakes, reflected sunlight give
To all who East of Eden now abide.

In midst of woods a single Tree now grows,
Takes life from Him down Jacob’s Ladder came
That we enchantment of New Eden know,
And exiled land will never be the same. 

His heaven’s light redeems our sunlight here
As shades and shadows are no longer dark,
For He on Calvary casts out all our fear,
And Eden’s East becomes new Noah’s Ark.

Our world’s transformed by Heaven’s risen light:
In East, New Eden rises from the night.
