Det spirar i Guds örtagård en blomma skär och blid, den Herren själv har i sin vård i vårens ljusa tid. Den blomman i Guds örtagård är trogna hjärtans bön, och Herren själv har i sin vård ej någon ros mer skön. Så kläd dig nu i helig skrud, min själ, i bön och pris, och blomstra frisk för Herren Gud som ros i paradis.
