O thou, of flowers the fairest
In Eden's groves that grow,
The scented sweets thou bearest
Shed down upon us now —
Flower of Eden, hail.

From out thy starry bower
Look down, O Mother mild,
Thy single glance hath power
To cheer our desert wild —
Flower of Eden, hail.

O thou, the best and brightest
Of all the starry train,
'Tis thou that safely lightest
Our path across the main —
Star of Ocean, hail.

Thy beams so pure and tender,
Still guide us on our way,
Till on us bursts the splendour
Of heaven's eternal day.
Star of Ocean, hail.
