I’ve Never Had a Garden

Publicado 2024-07-19
I met her on a Tuesday
By Friday thick as thieves
We shared some lows we shared some highs
The roots may have been shallow
But there there was beauty in the blooms
For a season it was right
I’ve never had a garden
But I have watched things grow
Sometimes it’s fast sometimes it’s slow

If I blink I’ll miss it
They’re growing up like weeds
The days are long–the years are short
The sunny days feel easy
Lessons come with rain
I have learned we need them both
I’ve never had a garden
But I have watched things grow
Sometimes it’s fast sometimes it’s slow

A seed got sown and watered
It turned into a dream
Will it wilt? Will it thrive?
The picture on the packet
Made expectations grand
Now I’m just hoping it survives
I’ve never had a garden
But I have watched things grow
Sometimes it’s fast sometimes it’s slow

No matter what else happens
I want to grow in love
For God and for my neighbor too
I’m learning to be faithful
Even when the goings tough
Lord may I abide in you
I’ve never had a garden
But I have watched things grow
Sometimes it’s fast sometimes it’s slow
I will trust the Gardener
The One who makes things grow
Sometimes it’s fast sometimes it’s slow

  • There are any number of faith based songs that you can listen to any given time. It's songs done like this one that can really tug at your faith because it is so personal. I felt like we were having a one on one conversation. Beautiful song and well done. Thanks for sharing and also thanks for using a microphone.
