Approach repentance with all joy,
Through its work, grace is deployed
A direct line to the Emperor of all we see
To ignore it is to live life foolishly
We have eaten the fruit, tasted our lies
It drips from our chin, it stains our lives
Cowering in the bushes, dressed in our shame
Ignoring the one who is calling our name.

Come walk with me in this garden of delight
Come walk with me till the stars shine bright
I made you, I formed you, I know who you are
Come walk with me, I will heal your heart

Peering out of the bushes, juice staining our lips
Perhaps next time, once I can control this
This dirty feeling of sin on my face
If I was clean, then I would ask Him for grace
We peer from the bushes as he walks by
We turn away, we run and hide
How can I face him when I am so impure
Next time maybe, I’ll be better for sure

Come walk with me in this garden of delight
Come walk with me till the stars shine bright
I made you, I formed you, I know who you are
Come walk with me, I will heal your heart

Peering out of the bushes, covered in juice
I’ll say it wasn’t my fault, I was given the fruit
It wasn’t my fault when I took that first bite
It wasn’t my fault I gave into lust, hate and pride
These people around me, they’re dragging me down
It’s your fault God! Look who you put me around
We peer from the bushes, excuse on our lips
As He walks by we continue to sit.

Come walk with me in this garden of delight
Come walk with me till the stars shine bright
I made you, I formed you, I know who you are
Come walk with me, I will heal your heart

Walking out of the bushes, covered in juice
We hold out our hands, still holding the fruit
I did it Lord, look at my hands
My misdeeds are as many as the sands
He looks at us, straight in the eyes
This mighty king, who for us once died
He washes us, with water and blood
Our shame wiped away, we experience love

We walk with Him in His garden of delight
We walk with Him late into the night
Our shame is gone as we walk by His side
We then wonder, why did we ever hide
