Lyrics

When Adam was created,
He dwelt in Eden’s shade,
As Moses has related,
Before a bride was made.
Ten thousand times ten thousand
Of creatures swarmed around,
Before a bride was formed,
Or any mate was found.

This woman, she was taken
From near to Adam’s heart,
By which we are directed
That they should never part.
The book that’s called the Bible,
Be sure you don’t neglect;
For in every sense of duty,
It will you both direct.
