In my garden there are flowers
In their many colored hues,
Freely drinking of the showers
And the early morning dews;
Seems they wave a fondly greeting
To each one who passes by,
If by chance he don't return it
Seems it almost makes them sigh.
Some have colors like the rainbow,
Others shine like purest gold,
O the grandeur of their beauty
Is most wondrous to behold;
Man may fill the world with wonders
By his great designing power
Yet with man's great skill and wisdom
It takes God to make a flower.
