The Garden in Lindingö
Mr. M. M. Fredericks, 1930
Birmingham, Michigan

Oh, God above,
I silently stand,
Before this materpiece,
From Thine own hand,
Created by Thee,
From Infinite Mind,
And given to bless,
Thine own,
Mankind.
Oh, God I pray,
That I should be,
That blessed one,
With gift from Thee,
To bring to Man,
Such Lovely thought.
As a chosen few,
Alone, have brought.
One, single thing,
Is all I ask,
One single thing,
Which ere shall last,
Until the end of Time,
And Man,
Oh, God I pray.
Choose me to be,
The one to bring,
A thought from thee.
