In the garden of Eden, pictured in my mind
There's beautiful sights to behold.
Sunshine and flowers, and wonders untold,
With lovely bright rainbows entwined.

All kinds of flora and fauna you'll find
And treasures of silver and gold.
In the garden of Eden, pictured in my mind,
There's beautiful sights to behold.

It's true perfection as God has designed,
Like Bible stories in childhood I was told.
Yet, I only imagine these wonders of old
'Till I cross over Jordan, I'll be confined
In the garden of Eden, pictured in my mind.
