I come to the garden alone

by Charles Austin Miles

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 487.

Verse 1

I come to the garden alone, While the dew is still on the roses; And the voice I hear, falling on my ear, The Son of God discloses.

Refrain

And He walks with me, And He talks with me, And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tarry there, None other has ever known.

Verse 2

He speaks, and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their singing, And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing.

Verse 3

I’d stay in the garden with Him Though the night around me be falling, But He bids me go; through the voice of woe, His voice to me is calling.
