My Garden

My Garden



Come to my garden, my sister my bride
Follow me there with your eyes open wide
For there are the flowers of yellow and blue
The tapestry painted a glorious hue
A place to delight in, to claim as my own
A place to reveal my terrestrial throne
A place for my queen to revel and dance
A place to call home if given the chance

I've come to your garden my husband my groom
I've seen all the flowers in glorious bloom
I'll turn this ambrosial site to a home
That your majesty's presence no longer shall roam

A place to delight in, I’ll transform the view

A place to reveal, how the whole world is You

A place for your essence to come down and sing

A place for your palace, an abode for the king


I gave you my garden my sister my bride

But now it lies fallow unfit to reside 

The lilies and lilacs, supplanted with weeds

Covered in filth, on account of your deeds

Higher and further you chased me away

Your folly and lies, led you to betray

You chose to ignore me, for pleasure and greed

Pushed me to withdraw, caused me to secede


I’ve neglected your garden my husband, my groom

From laughter and song, now comes sadness and gloom

The beauty the grandeur, once a marvelous sight

Is now covered in darkness, for you’ve hidden your light

Come back to your home, I beg and I plead

Allow me the chance, it’s all that I need

I’ll refine your garden exceeding the past

And this time together we’ll plant it to last


To rebuild my garden, my sister my bride

The power is yours, I’ve provided the guide

For you are beloved, in precious esteem

For only the seventh can truly redeem

To return once more, is all that I crave

It’s all in your hands how you choose to behave

So dig deep within, do all that you must

For that is the way to rebuild our trust


I’ll rebuild your garden, my husband, my groom

Once again lilies and lilacs will bloom

I’ll transform my folly from darkness to light

Above and beyond, for your holy delight

I’ll banish my ego, dispel my greed

My choices and actions, no more shall impede

All that I do will be to reveal

How Your Heavenly presence, is all that is real


I’ve come back to my garden my sister my bride

You cannot imagine my pleasure, my pride

Come sing with me, together we’ll go

Eternally bound, in this garden aglow

My place to delight in, you’ve made as my own
My place you revealed my terrestrial throne
My place where the queen now revels in song
My place I call home, my place I belong

Exile

Exile The heavens are covered in ashes,   The clouds wearing anguish and woe The angels are singing in silence For sons that they no longer know The mountains have cast down their pillars The hilltops have fallen in grief The flowers now colored in black The forests have shed every leaf The oceans lie dormant and somber The rivers have run their course dry The birds have ceased all their chirping On this day when the flames reached the sky On this day when the flames reached the sky On this day when the sages all cry On this day when the holy stones sigh On this day when destruction is nigh And now I am homeless and lonely Like a lamb lost, I wander and roam For I have perverted my duties I have witnessed the doom of my home And now I am tortured and beaten Hated despised and abused A floundering fish out of water Battered and broken and bruised   And my glory has long been forgotten The heavenly throne now ablaze Fo

Tomorrow

 Tomorrow  Tomorrow's come and gone again, the sky's still painted blue The fading light has found my eyes still filled with tears for you I wish so much that you had stayed, and not have gone away There is so much that's left undone, still so much to say I know that you are happy now, you're in a better place But what is there I wouldn't give, to once more see your face Tomorrow's come and gone again, yet I still don't understand How is this just, how is this fair, is this really a kind hand   For as you left with no goodbye, you may have failed to see How painful your departure was, how much it still hurts me And although you've gone and passed us by, you did not leave alone You took along a piece of me, and filled my heart with stone   Tomorrow's come and gone again, and still I miss you so And if you could hear the words I say, I'd want for you to know That all the tears I've cried for you, all the emptiness and pain Just goes to show the
