Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Does everyone remember the song "Your Love Is Sweeter Than Wine" by Susan
Tolle?  I have been working with Susan again and we have added another
song... "A Garden For My King".  There are two versions of the song you
can hear.

- A vocal recording by Susan at her mp3 page:

- A midi file I created at Songs of Praise:

Susan likes to take her inspiration from the book "Song of Solomon", and
her songs reflect great love and respect for her Savior.  Be sure and also
hear "I Can't Imagine" on Susan's mp3 page.

Here are the lyrics to "A Garden For My King"...

=============================================================

A GARDEN FOR MY KING
Copyright (c) 2000 Susan G. Tolle

(Verse 1)
I have a secret garden
a place of joy and rest
with living springs and fountains
and fragrant fruitfulness.
My garden is reserved for
my sweet beloved King.
No other one may enter
for His is everything.

(Chorus)
Oh, come sweet Jesus
and dwell within Your garden.
Delight Yourself in what You have created.
Come sweet Jesus
let nothing come between us.
My heart is Yours and Yours alone,
a garden for my King.

(Verse 2)
Come winds of fresh revival,
renew and cleanse my heart.
Come blow upon this garden,
it fragrance spread abroad.
Let sweet refreshing rains fall,
the sun to shine on me.
Your love is what I long for,
come my beloved King.

(Repeat Chorus Two Times)
Oh, come sweet Jesus
and dwell within Your garden.
Delight Yourself in what You have created.
Come sweet Jesus
let nothing come between us.
My heart is Yours and Yours alone,
a garden for my King.

Oh, come sweet Jesus
and dwell within Your garden.
Delight Yourself in what You have created.
Come sweet Jesus
let nothing come between us.
My heart is Yours and Yours alone,
a garden for my King.

(Ending)
My heart is Yours and Yours alone,
my heart is Yours and Yours alone,
my heart is Yours and Yours alone,
a garden for my King.

My heart is Yours and Yours alone,
a garden for my King.

=============================================================

The final recordings for our new revival play ("Come Fill My Heart") are
almost ready.  The CD and playbook should be completed in about a week.

Yours in Christ,
Elton Smith
