In a Garden Green

This is love, this is hate
This is chance, this is fate
These the rich, these the poor
This is peace, this is war
In a garden green

This is dark, this is light
This is wrong, this is right
These the strong, these the weak
These awake, these asleep
In a garden green

These to hide, these to seek
These to laugh, these to weep
These build , these destroy
This a girl, this a boy

In a garden green

These are flowers, these are weeds
These are healthy , these diseased
These will bloom, these will rot
This the tomb, this the cot

This a path, this a wall
This a plough, this a sword
This is marble, this is clay
This a throne, this a grave
In a garden green
Is god good
Is god bad
Is god happy
Is god sad
Is god honest
Is god sly
Is god alive
Or did god die
In a garden green
