In the cool of the day You come and meet me All the blue fades away The stars are winking Y our love's so strong
I can't recall What was this thing They called the fall?
And You walk with me
You never leave You're making my heart a garden
Oh, why would I hide Away from Your face When the light of Your love Illuminates
Your hand in mine A steady line Drawn on my heart And deep in my mind
All the broken are mending The mournful rejoicing Seeing through tears Of peace overflowing
And You walk with me You never leave You're making my heart a garden You walk with me You never leave You're making our world a garden

Behind the Song:'The Garden is a constant theme throughout scripture. Our story of humanity begins in a garden. In the most romantic book of the bible, “Song of Songs”, the beloved’s heart is compared to an enclosed garden. Then we have Gethsemane and a new Adam being faithful to His bride, the church. Our story will end in a Garden which is in a Heaven and a new earth. Here’s the most amazing thing - that while we are waiting for that, God now wants to take the human heart and make it a garden - like it was in the beginning.' - Matt Maher
