Teach Your Child the Remarkable Story of the Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross
A very long time ago, right here in this world,
there was a garden.
In the garden, everything was wonderful.
The world was full of laughing
and playing and smiling and fun.
There was nothing bad, ever.
There was no one sad, ever.
And best of all… God was there!

Hymn: "Day by Day" by Carolina Sandell Berg
Day by day, and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment,
I’ve no cause for worry or for fear.
He, whose heart is kind beyond all measure,
Gives unto each day what He deems best,
Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest.
