16 And now we live in hope,

And Syon, in her anguih,

With Babylon mut cope;

But He whom now we trut in

Shall then be een and known,

And they that know and ee Him

Shall have Him for their own.

The bland and flattering truggles

Of the fleh hall pas away;

And none hall there be jealous,

And none hall there contend;

Fraud, clamor, guile—what ay I?

All ill, all ill hall end!

And there is David's Fountain,

And life in fullet glow;

And there the light is golden,

And milk and honey flow—
