No lurking gins t' entrap our feet, No fierce destroyer there. 3 But flowers of Paradise In rich profusion spring; The Sun of glory gilds the path, And dear companions sing. 4 See Salem's golden spires In beauteous prospect rise; And brighter crowns than mortals wear, Which sparkle through the skies. 5 All honor to his name Who marks the shining way: To him who leads the wanderers on To realms of endless day.
