THE GARDEN

The Lord God planted a garden

In the first white days of the world,

And he set there an angel warden

In a garment of light enfurled.

.

So near to the peace of Heaven,

That the hawk might nest with the wren,.

For there in the cool of the even'

God walked with the first of men.

.

The kiss of the sun for pardon,

The song of the birds for mirth -

One is nearer God's heart in a garden

Then anywhere else on earth.
