Back to the Garden lyrics
by John Mark McMillan
Walk me down to the garden
Past the flaming sword
Take me back to Eden
Tarry with me Lord
Cause I've been taking losses
That's what people do
But if I'm bearing crosses
I will bear with you
I must believe you remake old things
And I must believe you're making the universe new
We're too far gone for knowledge
The fruit of good and ill
But take me to the living tree
And I'll have my fill
Cause I've never had the words right
Or even thoughts to think
But take me to the waterside
My heart knows how to drink
I must believe you remake old things
And I must believe You're making the universe new
And I must believe You'll remake all things
And I have to believe there is a place for me too
In life and in the afterlife
In life and in the afterlife
I must believe You remake old things
I must believe You're making the universe new
And I must believe You'll remake all things
And I have to believe there is a place for me too
In life and in the afterlife
In life and in the afterlife
Walk me down to the garden
Past the flaming sword
Take me back to Eden
Tarry with me Lord
