The Beautiful Garden Of Prayer

There’s a garden where Jesus is waiting,

There’s a place that is wondrously fair;

For it glows with the light of His presence,

’Tis that beautiful garden of prayer.

Refrain:

Oh, the beautiful garden, the garden of prayer,

Oh, the beautiful garden of prayer;

There my Savior awaits, and He opens the gates

There’s a garden where Jesus is waiting,

And I go with my burden and care

Just to learn from His lips words of comfort,

In the beautiful garden of prayer. [Refrain]

There’s a garden where Jesus is waiting,

And He bids you to come meet Him there;

Just to bow, and receive a new blessing,

In the beautiful garden of prayer. [Refrain]
