There Is A Gentle Gard'ner

Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a gentle Gard'ner, Who owns a garden fair, Where countless blooming flowers Enjoy His tender care. 2 He grants them radiant sunshine And soft, refreshing rain; Thus nurtured, they must flourish And sweetest fragrance gain. 3 They fondly love the Gard'ner, And all to Him incline, While with their clinging tendrils They seek Him to entwine. 4 And when their day is ended He takes them to His breast, And heavenward He bears them To regions ever blest. 5 There shall those flowers glisten In beauty evermore, Nor cold nor frost shall blight them On that celestial shore. 6 Thou Gard'ner true and gentle, Care for us ev'ry day, That we in yonder Garden May thrive and bloom for aye.

God has brought His Israel Into joy from sadness. See the spring of souls today: Christ has burst His prison And from three days' sleep in death As a sun has risen. 2 All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From His light, to Whom we give Laud and praise undying. Neither could the gates of death Nor the tomb's dark portal Nor the watchers nor the seal Hold Him as a mortal. 3 But today among His own Christ appeared, bestowing Blessed peace, which evermore Passes human knowing. Come, you faithful, raise the strain Of triumphant gladness! God has brought His Israel Into joy from sadness. Topics: Easter Used With Tune: GAUDEAMUS PARITER
