There's a Garden (The Beautiful Garden of Prayer)

([THERE'S A GARDEN WHERE JESUS IS WAITING])
1.

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:
O the beautiful garden, the garden of prayer,
O the beautiful garden of prayer!
There my Savior awaits, and He opens the gates
To the beautiful garden of prayer.

2.

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:
O the beautiful garden, the garden of prayer,
O the beautiful garden of prayer!
There my Savior awaits, and He opens the gates
To the beautiful garden of prayer.

3.

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:
O the beautiful garden, the garden of prayer,
O the beautiful garden of prayer!
There my Savior awaits, and He opens the gates
To the beautiful garden of prayer.
