God Is A Very Small Gardener Lyrics

The deer that finds no pasture

Will learn to trust in the one

That every morning says you are

Begotten with the sun

Don't you perceive the new

Things the father has done?

Have hope in the wilderness

And never thirst again

A dove in its quiet cage

Escapes winter with haste

While the albatross hibernates

Is pruned and made to wait

Two steps at a time

I will abide, abide

'Cause the daylily waits for its time

God is a small gardener

Forest keeper of the small trees

That are shaking like leaves

Marigolds

Ivy-covered walls

They are wilting

They wish to drink

Where I am going

You cannot go

Seeds have to die

In order to grow

Iscariot, you've become and betrayed

Yes, you are weak

But for your own sake

You will grow

God is a small gardener

Forest keeper of the small trees

That are shaking like leaves

Marigolds

Ivy-covered walls

They are wilting

They wish to drink
