In the garden of my tears, Glistening dewlike, hesitant and still, Flowing through the rhythms, Heartfelt and weary, Bleeding, like the whisper Who collects the music in the stars, The gentle of a sea’s voice, The blessing when the wind roars, The beautiful beyond the mountainous crests, Seeking, I find… God never rests He is always working, always seeking Forever inviting those who might be weeping, Those who might be in need of Him, Those whose soul can be freed by Him. God never rests He’s in the wind, in the trees, in the joy In the wonder, in the grace, in the music that slowly fades. He makes the heart murmur its praise, Assures the spirit of love and grace, Realizes that hope is more than a chance. Hope is the welcome to God’s gentle embrace, Hope is the captive whose been set free. Hope is the wonder that will always believe. God never rests And He always sees… in the shadows, A way for you and me, a way for grace and faith A way for love to seek, a way for light to glow, A way for His salvation to open the door… To eternity, to love supernal, to life everlasting, To the hope that His light has sparked… The love that we are accepting when we agree With Jesus, our peace, our grace, our reason. God never rests Because He’s always seeking Those He can bless With His wonderous song, The love that lingers on and on, Promising there is always ONE Who will pull the soul from the shadows, Allow the heart to settle, And breath light into the cracks… So forever isn’t so far away at all Forever, God never rests, forever… He blesses those who can see past the doubt, To the light that reflects His holiness, The love that abides inside those who believe, The grace that restores the soul who praises The One whose love truly amazes!
