Garden Thoughts

1. I come to the garden alone,
   While the dew is still on the roses,
   And the voice I hear falling on my ear
   The Son of God discloses.
   • Refrain:
     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.
2. 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.
3. I’d stay in the garden with Him,
   Though the night around me be falling,
   But He bids me go; through the voice of woe
   His voice to me is calling.
4. Her funeral was small but filled with love. The melody of In the Garden sang by two of her favourite singers. She lived a long life and touched many souls with her gentle kind spirit. Sweet Marie as we called her lived up to her name. Her latter years were filled with confusion, she new her life here on earth was temporary. We opened our hearts to her some 20+ years ago and our life's were forever changed.  A small gesture of friendship so many years ago, opened a door to a lifetime of memories. So in your everyday business of life I challenge you to take small steps in changing the life of someone you meet today. Find time in the garden, it's beauty will overwhelm you.
5. Three things I'm thankful for:
6. 1.Saw my first set of flowers popping out of my neighbour's garden on my walk.
7. 2.I can walk.
8. 3. Friends who love me.
