Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:
This song began with a SINGLE  F# minor chord. 

    This sounds silly, I know, but musicians might notice that my 'favorite key' is E minor; there's not a single note that won't fit right into that key... Em6, Em7,   Em9,   Emb5 -- I love them all.  So one day when I was sitting at the piano,   I commented to God that I needed some variety in the music to reflect His Creativity.   Since Em is all white keys, I started hunting for cool chords with black keys.  Hence, F#m chord riffs throughout this melody. 

        The concept of the song itself came from hearing in the same month Creflo Dollar's and Joyce Meyer's intriguing comparisons of garden work with working at growing love within a marriage and growing love for God. 
        One of the song topics is TIME:  Worse than any garden -----
If you won't spend time growing your relationship with your special someone
or with your God,    the relationship  shall  WILT. 

Dedicated to our Loving Lord, 13 February 2010.
For Laura & Thomas, for Michelle & Claxton...    couples  who've been in love “forever”.

LYRICS

1
“Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary,
How does your garden grow?” _ _ _ _   A
silly song from back so long in my mem'ry, I remember no more.
       Mary, we know, had to start with some seeds.... then
      water, then work to remove lots of weeds.... then
      picking results of her hard work that grew.   So
WHAT DO WE THINK HAPPENED NEXT? _ _ _ _ More
planting seeds -- or no more harvests!

2
Husband and wife, been together so long....
How does your married love grow?”    _ _ _ _  Fresh
words of love shared at your wedding so long in your
mem'ries --- Does your love still grow?
       Love words and holding hands planted love seeds.. then
       you nourished love with caring and kind deeds.... then
       love bloomed results of your planned care for each other.   
WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENS NEXT? _ _ _ _ Plant     
                     more love to reap happiness.          

3
Christian, you vowed love to our God so long ago....How does your love for God grow?” _ _ _ _   Love
words to God spoken daily so long in your
mem'ry -- Does your love still grow?
      Reading God's Words to you through His Bible... then
      seeking to know God more through constant prayer... then
      love bloomed results of your planned time to worship Him.
WHAT TRULY HAS HAPPENED NEXT? _ _ _ _ Have
you let time make you careless?

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:

“And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him....
We love Him because He first loved us.”  --  First John 4: 16, 19 NKJV
