Subject: Lyr Req: Beautiful Garden of Prayer
I'm listening to a full-length MP3 right now from the Digital Library of Appalachia.

Hoping for dots and, if handy, a text of the lyric, tho it's clear enough I can transcribe it. Lovely, homey old piece. Waltz. Rufus Woods sings and plays in an interview at his home in Meadows of Dan, Virginia, in the 80's.

I thought I recalled seeing it here, but no luck on Mudcat search.

Chorus:

O the beautiful garden, the garden of prayer,
O the beautiful garden of prayer!
There my Savior awaits, and He opens the gate...
To the beauftiful garden of prayer.

~Susan
