<blockquote>
<p>I read&#8230;the story of the greatest morn in history: &#8220;The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, while it was yet very dark, unto the sepulcher.&#8221; Instantly, completely, there unfolded in my mind the scenes of the garden of Joseph&#8230;.Out of the mists of the garden comes a form, halting, hesitating, tearful, seeking, turning from side to side in bewildering amazement. Falteringly, bearing grief in every accent, with tear-dimmed eyes, she whispers, &#8220;If thou
hast borne him hence&#8221;&#8230; &#8220;He speaks, and the sound of His voice is so sweet the birds hush their singing.&#8221; Jesus said to her, &#8220;Mary!&#8221; Just one word from his lips, and forgotten the heartaches, the long dreary hours&#8230;.all the past blotted out in the presence of the Living Present and the Eternal Future.</p>

<div class="lyrics">
<p>I come to the garden alone<br>
While the dew is still on the roses<br>
And the voice I hear falling on my ear<br>
The Son of God discloses.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">And He walks with me, and He talks with me,<br>
And He tells me I am His own;<br>
And the joy we share as we tarry there,<br>
None other has ever known.</p>
<p>He speaks, and the sound of His voice,<br>
Is so sweet the birds hush their singing,<br>
And the melody that He gave to me<br>
Within my heart is ringing.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>I&#8217;d stay in the garden with Him<br>
Though the night around me be falling,<br>
But He bids me go; through the voice of woe<br>
His voice to me is calling.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
