425. In the Garden

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. [Refrain]

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. [Refrain]
