First Line: The years are flowers and bloom within
Last Line: And make them rose-like in his name.
Subject(s): Flowers; Gardens & Gardening; God; Religion; Theology
The years are flowers and bloom within
Eternity's wide garden;
The rose for joy, the thorn for sin,
The gardener, God, to pardon
All wilding growths, to prune, reclaim,
And make them rose-like in His name.
