Have you ever read The Shack? Definitely recommended for a different take on God :) A few years ago, Dordt's Pastor Baart talked about that book and then played the following song. He was talking about the part of the book where the Holy Spirit is working in a garden and the main character (I don't remember his name) comes up and asks the Holy Spirit what He's doing. He's working away, tearing up some weeds and planting other beautiful plants in their place.Turns out that He's working on a garden of the main character's heart. I don't remember exactly how it all goes, but I like the analogy a lot. :) Plus, I like to think about God going for a walk in the Garden of Eden. I want my heart to be lovely enough for God to want to come take a walk in. Song of Songs also talks about gardens a lot. I've mentioned this before. :)
Anyway, enjoy the song! :)

In the cool of the day
You come and meet me
All the blue fades away
The stars are winking
Your love's so strong
I can't recall
What was this thing
They called the fall?
And You walk with me
You never leave
You're making my heart a garden
Oh, why would I hide
Away from Your face
When the light of Your love
Illuminates
Your hand in mine
A steady line
Drawn on my heart
And deep in my mind
And You walk with me
You never leave
You're making my heart a garden
All the broken are mending
The mournful rejoicing
Seeing through tears
Of peace overflowing
And You walk with me
You never leave
You're making my heart a garden
Yeah, You walk with me
You never leave
You're making our world a garden
