Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to Thy voice: cause me to hear it.Song of Solomon 8:13

My sweet Lord Jesus remembers well the garden of Gethsemane, and although He has left that garden, He now dwells in the garden of His church: there He unbosoms Himself to those who keep His blessed company. That voice of love with which He speaks to His beloved is more musical than the harps of heaven. There is a depth of melodious love within it which leaves all human music far behind. Ten of thousands on earth, and millions above, are indulged with its harmonious accents. Some whom I well know, and whom I greatly envy, are at this moment hearkening to the beloved voice. O that I were a partaker of their joys! It is true some of…

these are poor, others bedridden, and some near the gates of

death, but O my Lord, I would cheerfully starve with them, pine with
them, or die with them, if I might but hear Thy voice. Once I did hear it
often, but I have grieved Thy Spirit. Return unto me in compassion, and
once again say unto me, “I am thy salvation.” No other voice can content
me; I know Thy voice, and cannot be deceived by another, let me hear it, I
pray thee. I know not what Thou wilt say, neither do I make any
condition, O my Beloved, do but let me hear Thee speak, and if it be a
rebuke I will bless Thee for it. Perhaps to cleanse my dull ear may need an
operation very grievous to the flesh, but let it cost what it may I turn not
from the one consuming desire, cause me to hear Thy voice. Bore my ear
afresh; pierce my ear with Thy harshest notes, only do not permit me to
continue deaf to Thy calls. To-night, Lord, grant Thine unworthy one his
desire, for I am Thine, and Thou hast bought me with Thy blood. Thou
hast opened mine eye to see Thee, and the sight has saved me. Lord, open
Thou mine ear. I have read Thy heart, now let me hear Thy lips.
