In the Garden

  We sang this song, In the Garden, a favorite of my grandmother's and mine, while in Israel. Its melody rang in my ear as I walked in the Garden of Gethsemane. One day we will walk in the garden with Him. 

In the Garden

I come to the garden alone

While the dew is still on the roses

And the voice I hear falling on my ear

The song of God discloses

And He walks with me

And He talks with me

And He tells me I am his own

And the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known

He speaks and the sound of His voice

Is so sweet the birds hush their singing

And the melody that He gave to me

Within my heart is ringing

And He walks with me

And He talks with me

And He tells me I am his own

And the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known

Songwriters: Leyton, Simon/Miles, C. Austin
