Pearls & Roses

In a beautiful garden there

Out in the summer air.

As the clouds floated by,

And angels began to fly.

They came into my day

Strangers walking by the way.

Near to my mother's grave

I told them of how to be saved.

The tears filled our eyes

As we began to cry.

The Spirit was hovering near

As the gospel I began to share.

The old, old story of God's love

He sends from up above.

The precious pearls all strung

As in glory the angels sung.

Sweet was the symphony

That the angels sung to me.

The Lord's glory was all around

As we stood on holy ground.

Their voices filled with glee

The precious pearls to see.

She gave me roses entwined

They will be mine for all time.

Pearls and roses came together

As God's love was shown to others.
