I Gcome to the gar-den a-lone,
While the Cdew is still on the Gros-es,
D7And the voice I hear, Fall-ing Gon my ear,
The A7Son of God dis-clos-D7es.
And he Gwalks with me, and he Dtalks with me,
And he Ctells me D7I am his Gown,
And the Gjoy we B7share as we Emtar-ry Cthere,
None Goth-er has D7ev-er Gknown.
He Gspeaks, and the sound of his voice
Is so Csweet, the birds hush their Gsing-ing,
And the D7mel-o-dy That he Ggave to me,
With-A7in my heart is D7ring-ing.
And he Gwalks with me, and he Dtalks with me,
And he Ctells me D7I am his Gown,
And the Gjoy we B7share as we Emtar-ry Cthere,
None Goth-er has D7ev-er Gknown.
I'd Gstay in the gar-den with him,
Tho' the Cnight a-round me be Gfall-ing,
D7But he bids me go, Thro' the Gvoice of woe,
His A7voice to me is D7call-ing.
And he Gwalks with me, and he Dtalks with me,
And he Ctells me D7I am his Gown,
And the Gjoy we B7share as we Emtar-ry Cthere,
None Goth-er has D7ev-er Gknown.
And the Gjoy we Dshare as we Ctarry there,
None Goth-er has Dev-er Gknown.
