lyrics

Have you ever felt good,
I mean ever felt right with God in a way that fills your lungs.

Have you layed your arms down to it?
And felt relief bubble up like a spring in a small cup?

Have you ever felt hope?
Like hints of an ever after where the best is meant to be?

Where strength like a seed grows,
And tells you not to be afraid like David in the valley.

I want to meet you in the garden,
Let’s drink the water eat the fruit,
And dance forever in the daylight,
No night, or need to sleep a wink,

Have you ever been at peace,
At peace in a way that can overcome time,
It puts eternity at ease,
When you rest in the hands that can make a circle from a straight line,

Have you ever felt safe,
Protected in a way that even death can not approach,

But what’s death,
Tell me what’s death,
In a man’s last breath,
When there’s nothing left,
When there’s new life to be had,

I want to meet you in the garden,
Let’s drink the water eat the fruit,
And dance forever in the daylight,
No night, or need to sleep a wink,

If being dead’s like being asleep,
Like the good book says,
Then I won’t need no patience,
Cause I can’t wait to be out of my grave,
With a smile on my face,
When I feel real good to no end.

I want to meet you in the garden,
Let’s drink the water eat the fruit,
And dance forever in the daylight,
No night, or need to sleep a wink.
