Garden of Prayer

Quiet place of refuge

From trouble I am safe

Nothing there can harm me

My cry brings His embrace

He lifts me to His vantage point

Such beauty I can see

My prayers arising to His hearing

His grace will carry me

Though I walk through valleys deep

And places filled with sorrow

Each visit to that secret place

Gives hope for each tomorrow

So I will go there often

And liger there to hear

His footsteps in the garden

As my prayer brings Him near
