Used To Be Mine

(album: Age To Age - 2014)

The lion and lamb once slept between the roses
And God and man once walked beneath the pine
My heart once felt the joy of consummation
When I was called my Father's holy prize

But in the garden
Ooh ooh, we used to stay out all night
In the garden
Ooh ooh, we used to laugh for days and days and days
In the garden
Ooh ooh, we never needed to hide
'Cause in the garden
Ooh ooh, You used to be mine
You used to be mine

The thorns dug in my heels have got me bleeding
Each breath, the draining sand of numbered days
Yeah, my rebel heart is crying for salvation
Come save me from my wayward spirit's grave

But in the garden
Ooh ooh, we used to stay out all night
In the garden
Ooh ooh, we used to laugh for days and days and days
In the garden
Ooh ooh, we never needed to hide
'Cause in the garden
Ooh ooh, You used to be mine
You used to be mine

Used to be mine
Used to be mine
Used to be mine

In my dying days, a light met my hearts waning
A Voice calling like thunder through the dust
When lifted to His lips the cup of breaking
The Father turns away from His own Son
But in death, the earth was shaken from its spinning
A Hand reached out to save me from the waves
And my stone heart was pulled out of my body
And by grace a garden grew up in its place
Yeah, by grace a garden grew up in its place
