God's Flower Garden
It's hard to lose the ones we love,
9
To see them pass away
The sweetest and the kindest gone
0
While others are left to stray.
But if we had a garden,
With roses fair and bright
We'd often pick the loveliest
And think it might be right
The flowers that are picked by Jesus
Will never fade away
We know theyW live forever
And we'll see them again some sweet day.
I
