HOW CHRIST LOVES HIS GARDEN

Song of Solomon 2:8-15; 4:9-16; 6:2-3

 

 

 

How Christ loves his garden,

It's so very plain to see...

WE, are his lovely garden

Specially planted - YOU and ME!

 

His fragrant garden delights him!

With kind deeds and acts of love;

These pleasant, sweet-smelling aromas,

Ascend up to the Father above.

 

Christ's garden is surrounded

By angels all around;

His flowers fed, well watered

on God's Word, flourish and abound.

 

We remember the Lord, our Bridegroom,

His sweet face, soft voice we seek

Around the memorial table

each first day of the week.

 

Don't squash Christ's lovely flowers

the warning is plain and clear

All the foxes who harm the garden

have the God of Israel to fear!

 

We yearn to be in God's kingdom

where our bloom shall never fade.

"No more death, and no more sorrow"

Precious promises God has made.

 

When the Bridegroom comes a skipping,

O'er the hills for his "Bouquet"

What are you! Cactus, rose or lily?

He'll tell us on Judgment Day
