Garden of Heaven

In the garden of heaven
There dwells a flower
As sweet as an angel's sigh
A perfect lily of virgin white
Who in God's arms does lie

And in each breeze
Of a summer's day
I feel her hand in mine
And I know my love is by my side
And never need I pine

And when my time 
On earth is done
I once again will be
In the heavenly garden high above
With my beautiful wife to be
