HYMN 23. P. M.
 
 1 This earth was once a garden place,
  With all her glories common;
  And men did live a holy race,
  And worship Jesus face to face,
  In Adam-ondi-Ahman.
 
 2 We read that Enoch walk'd with God,
  Above the pow'r of Mammon:
 While Zion spread herself abroad,
 And saints and angels sung aloud
  In Adam-ondi-Ahman.
 
 3 Her land was good and greatly blest,
  Beyond old Israel's Canaan:
 Her fame was known from east to west;
 Her peace was great, and pure the rest
  Of Adam-ondi-Ahman.
 
 4 Hosanna to such days to come
  The Savior's second comin'
 When all the earth in glorious bloom,
 Affords the saints a holy home
  Like Adam-ondi-Ahman.
