"Garden In Manhattan" lyrics

"Garden In Manhattan"

On the crowded streets, all the people that I see
Want them to know the Jesus that I know
If I'm the closest thing to a Bible that they read
Let the words they read be what you wrote
Father, help me to go

I'll be a garden in Manhattan, be a river where it's dry
When my friends can't find the road, I'll be a roadside welcome sign
Sunshine in Seattle, be a cool breeze in July
Light in the darkness
I'll be a garden
A garden in Manhattan

Florida after dark, I know it ain't quite Central Park
There's souls in my hometown you wanna reach
Oh, God, use me where you have me

I'll be a garden in Manhattan, be a river where it's dry
When my friends can't find the road, I'll be a roadside welcome sign
Sunshine in Seattle, be a cool breeze in July
Light in the darkness
I'll be a garden
A garden in Manhattan
A garden in Manhattan
A flower in the concrete
If that's where you want me

Give me holy confidence
I don't care the consequence
I can't keep you all to myself (To myself)
It goes against my common sense
And I refuse to run from it
I can't keep you all to myself (To myself)

I'll be a garden in Manhattan, be a river where it's dry
When my friends can't find the road, I'll be a roadside welcome sign
Sunshine in Seattle, be a cool breeze in July
Light in the darkness
I'll be a garden
A garden in Manhattan
A garden in Manhattan
A flower in the concrete
If that's where you want me

A garden in Manhattan
A flower in the concrete
If that's where you want me
