This 1835 text and tune from Southern Harmony is in a lilting 6/8. The arrangement is mostly four-part, but it does feature the men's voices for half a verse. Direct and simple, this Garden Hymn is not to be confused with I come to the garden alone… which came almost 80 years later. This one is not quite as I focused but has a similarly sweet tone, ending with, The desert blossoms as the rose when Jesus conquers all his foes and makes his people one..
