For Now Gethsemane

I long to walk in Eden
With trees in bloom
And where the air is sweet
To spend my days in sunshine
Beside the brook
Where You will meet with me
But I have heard You calling
And in obedience I go
To another garden
Whose history I know

Lord, for now, it's Gethsemane
For now, that's where You're bringing me
To a place whose agony You've known
So, because Your will is clear
I trust You and I'll stay right here
If Eden calls tomorrow
Then those pathways I will roam
But for now, Gethsemane is home

I won't compare my suffering
With all the pain
I know that You endured
Yet You have used this garden
To teach me how
Surrender makes me Yours
So, strengthen and sustain me
And I will face whatever comes
I know Eden's waiting
When this night is young

Lord, for now, it's Gethsemane
For now, that's where You're bringing me
To a place whose agony You've known
So, because Your will is clear
I trust You and I'll stay right here
If Eden calls tomorrow
Then those pathways I will roam
But for now, Gethsemane is home

Where You walk with me
And You talk with me
And you tell me I'm Your own

Lord, for now, it's Gethsemane
For now, that's where You're bringing me
To a place whose agony You've known
So, because Your will is clear
I trust You and I'll stay right here
If Eden calls tomorrow
Then those pathways I will roam
But for now, Gethsemane is home
But for now, Gethsemane is home
