ELVIS IN THE GARDEN

ELVIS IN THE GARDENIt’s Sunday morning and I’m listening to the great Elvis Presley, singing one of the most beautiful hymns of all time. Controversial and audacious, even at the time, Elvis Presley’s religious album How Great Thou Art remains my husband’s and my favourite Elvis album. So full of feeling, so beautifully sung, joyful and sorrowful, both. A complete classic of its time! Love Susie. x

In the Garden


I come to the garden alone

While the dew is still on the roses

And the voice I hear falling on my ear

The Son of God discloses

And He walks with me

And He talks with me

And He tells me I am His own

And the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known

He speaks, and the sound of His voice

Is so sweet, the birds hush their singing

And the melody that He gave to me

Within my heart is ringing

And He walks with me

And He talks with me

And He tells me I am His own

And the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known (I come to the garden alone)
