304. The Beautiful Garden of Prayer

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 the beautiful garden of prayer.

Refrain:
O the beautiful garden, the garden of prayer,
O the beautiful garden of prayer;
There my Saviour 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]

3 There's a garden where Jesus is waiting,
And He bids you to come meet Him there;
Just to walk and to talk with my Saviour,
In the beautiful garden of prayer. [Refrain]
