G C G I come to the garden alone, while the dew is still on the roses D7 G A7 D And the voice I hear, falling on my ear, the Son of God discloses [Chorus] G D7 And He walks with me, and He talks with me G And He tells me I am His own B7 Em G7 C And the joy we share as we tarry there G D7 G None other has ever known G C G He speaks, and the sound of His voice is so sweet the birds hush their singing D7 G A7 D And the melody that He gave to me within my heart is ringing (chorus) G C G I'd stay in the garden with Him, tho' the night around me be falling D7 G A7 D But He bids me go; thro' the voice of woe, His voice to me is calling (chorus)
