First Line: I want to live in a garden

Subject(s): Gardens & Gardening


I want to live in a garden
In the sunlight and the air,
Beside the grasses and the trees
And all the flowers fair.

I want to grow beside them
And help them day by day,
Since they help me and make my life
Happier every way!

The world began with a garden
In Eden, long, long ago;
The Saviour of men had a garden
Where He for peace could go.

I love to watch the miracle
When blossoms bud and blow;
I'm nearer to God in a garden,
Than any place I know!
