Story Behind The Song

Based on the poem "The Rose Beyond The Wall". A Rose once grew where all could see sheltered beside a garden wall and as the days passed swiftly by it spread its branches straight and tall... One day a beam of light shown through a crevice that had opened wide The rose bent gently toward the warmth then passed beyond the other side. Now you who deeply feel it's loss be comforted~ the Rose blooms there~ It's bounty even greater now nurtured by God's own loving care.
