The Lord is my gardener,
He plants me in pleasant places.
He warms me with the sunshine of His love
and refreshes me with His Word.
He rakes away the cluttered rubble in my life,
and digs out those things which would harm my soul.
Sometimes He prunes me for greater fruitfulness
that I might be more pleasing to Him.
Surely my desire is to grow, day by day,
in truth and tranquillity and to blossom continually
in the garden of His Grace.
