O perfect Love, all human thought transcending, Lowly we kneel in prayer before Thy throne.

Kiss of the sun for pardon. Song of the birds for mirth. You're closer to God's heart in a garden than any place else on earth.

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. The kiss of the sun for pardon, the song of the bird for mirth, One is nearer God's heart in a garden Than anywhere else on earth.

The kiss of the sun for pardon, The song of the birds for mirth, One is nearer God's Heart in a garden Than anywhere else on earth.
