There’s a garden where Jesus is waiting, A place that is wondrously fair, for it glows with the light of His presence, Tis the Beautiful garden of prayer.
There’s a garden where Jesus is waiting, And I go with my burdens and care, Just to learn from His lips words of comfort, In the beautiful garden of prayer.
There’s a garden where Jesus is waiting, And He bids you to come meet Him there, Just to walk and to talk with my Savior, In the beautiful garden of prayer.
(Hymn 411)
Have you been to that beautiful garden of prayer? Have you reached out to the Savior with your burdens and care? Have you talked with Jesus and walked with him there?
I’ve been there. And it is oh so sweet and wondrously fair.
He stilled my heart as I hoped for the impossible that was not His will,
He comforted me when my tears continuously flowed,
He forgave me when I confessed all that I had transgressed,
He gave me peace when distraught and anxious I professed,
In intercession, He taught me to love and care,
In loneliness, He taught me humility,
In humility, He taught me mercy,
In every prayer of spirit and truth, He changes my heart.
I sense His presence every day. I feel His loving guidance directing my way. He is always with me when I pray.
Have you been to the Beautiful Garden of Prayer? The Savior is waiting for you there. Waiting to open the gates to the Beautiful Garden of Prayer.
