Notable work"In the Garden"

Charles Austin Miles (January 7, 1868 – March 10, 1946) was a prolific American writer of gospel songs, who is best known for his 1912 hymn " In the Garden".

He studied at the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of Pennsylvania. In 1892, he ceased to practice as a pharmacist. His first gospel song, "List! ’Tis Jesus’ Voice", was published by the Hall-Mack Company. He worked as editor and manager at Hall-Mack for 37 years. A resident of Pitman, New Jersey, Miles died on March 10, 1946, at Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia. [1] He is buried in Hillcrest Memorial Park, Sewell, NJ.

He said, "It is as a writer of gospel songs I am proud to be known, for in that way I may be of the most use to my Master, whom I serve willingly although not as efficiently as is my desire". [2] [3] He wrote at least 398 songs, and the music to at least 8 more. [4]

His best-known song may be " In the Garden" (1912); sometimes known by its first line, "I Come to the Garden Alone". It has been included in 210 hymnals, [5] and recorded numerous times.

There is no cross now standing on Calvary's hill 3
There is no day so dark, but has its gleam 3
There is no storm where Jesus is 2
There is one who always walks beside me 4
There is one who stands upon the threshold 2
There is one whose love is steadfast ever 1
There may be lands as yet unknown 3
There was a Rose in Sharon growing 2
There's a Friend who waits to save thee 1
There's a happy home my soul shall dwell within 1
There's a land of bliss eternal, Where the saints their Lord behold 1
There's a land of peace and plenty 4
There's a land to which my steps are leading 4
There's a mansion that is waiting over there 3
There's a message borne 2
There's a mighty army marching, which can never be dismayed 1
There's a mother on her knees in prayer 4
There's a name that makes my happiness complete 2
There's a new name written down in glory 2
There's a robe that I shall wear 3
There's a shout in the camp, keep the fires brightly burning 13
There's a wedding feast preparing 3
They crucified him who knew no sin 2
They nailed my Lord upon the tree 7
This is my salvation, Jesus died for me 2
This land through which I journey, is beautiful to me 4
This the morn Christ was born, long ago 2
Though all the world may pass me by 2
Though many, many years may pass away 3
Though the tomb essayed to hold him 4
Thou shalt not have, so says the Lord 6
Though I know I must go through the valley low 2
Though the hand of winter touches hill and plain 2
Though the storms of life may gather 2
Though the world allure with its gilded charm 5
Through the heavy losses, and unyielding crosses 2
Through the Savior, crucified 1
Thy white stars laid in heaven's blue 3
Time stands and waits while we go rushing by 3
'Tis the Lord who redeems us, who has shown the way 3
Toiling, and often weary 2
Trusting in Jesus from day to day 3
Trusting Jesus, trusting every day 1
Trusting though the clouds may gather heavy overhead 2
'Twas love that gave at greatest cost 3
'Twas the life of Christ, my Lord 8
'Twas when I surrendered to Christ my all 2
Una vez perdido vivía yo 2
Unto him who rose in his glory 1
Up Calvary's hill Jesus patiently trod 10
Uplifted high on Calvary across I see 3
Waken O earth, nor silent 1
Walking in the morning bright 12
Walking with Jesus on Emmaus way 2
We are looking upward every day 2
We are marching on to the Glory land, We fear no foe before us 2
We are sailors on the sea of life 1
We are waiting for the dawning of the day 2
We are willing workers, waiting Jesus' call 2
We believe, O Lord, in the Holy Spirit [Ghost] 4
We come, we come, with happy voices singing joyous songs of praise 1
We walk and talk together 4
Weary and wandering and sunken in sin 4
You may look for me, for I'll be there 1

Ĝardenen mi venas en sol' 2
Gather from the hillsides, gather from the plains 2
Gather the sunbeams as they fall across the path of youth 2
Give me no treasures that last but a while 3
Go and tell unto all the gospel story 12
God holds the key to the crosses 2
God is calling now for workers where no light has gone 2
God is ever careful of his own 4
God laid on me a cross to carry 2
God's own hand shall lead me 5
Good night and God bless you 2
Grant, my dear Lord, thy blessing unto me 5
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised! In the city of our God (Miles) 2
Hark, on the highway of life a sound As crested waves of ocean roar 9
Hark, the Sabbath bells are pealing Softly o'er the dew-kissed land 2
Hasten away, do not delay 3
Hate made a cross from the wood of a tree 3
Have you done your very best 3
Have you ever tried to bear your burdens all alone 13
He my refuge is, my fortress, I will put my trust in him 3
He will hear me when I call 1
Hear the chimes of the gospel bells 2
Hear the Easter bells, blessed Easter bells 1
Hear the song of the murmuring sea 1
Heavenly doors were opened 3
Here in the name of Christ our King 2
Here we all must part, here the aching heart 14
Hold thou my hand, O Lord when pleasures vain allure me 2
Holy Bible, word divine 3
How glorious is the holy word 4
How often you think of your home 2
Hvar och ensaa s'ger Gud 2
I am fully satisfied with Jesus' love 2
I am glad to tell, with my soul 'tis well 2
I am happy every day, for I know 2
I am happy in the Lord, sweetly trusting 2
I am not under law, I'm under grace 5
I am rejoicing now in sins forgiven 6
I am sailing on a sea 3
I am the Way, the Savior said, And I would 10
I can face all trials here 2
I cannot keep from singing, the Praises of My God 2
I cannot understand while walking hand in hand 2
I claim for my own a King on a throne 4
I come to the garden alone 220
I do not know and none can tell 2
I do not know the depths of Jesus' love, that brought Him down 7
I have a Comrade who knows me well 2
I have a cross that I must bear 2
I have a friend indeed, a friend I often need 9
I have a friend, than whom I need no other 2
I have a friend unfailing 4
I have a friend who knows me so well 2
I have blessed peace though the storm may beat 2
I hear it in the midnight hour 2
I knew I was a sinner 2
I know I am a sinner in the sight of God 2
I know I love my Savior, When all is fair and bright 2
I love him because I know him 4
I love him, though unworthy ever 2
I love to think of Jesus, who else could it be 10
I must have Jesus with me when the morning light 4
I must lay this body down and soar away 8
I need the blood to me applied 2
I often wonder what shall be 2
I saw around the throne 2
I seem to see one walking 3
I shall wear a golden crown, 33
I sought to find my heart's desire 2
I strive to walk the narrow way 2
I walk with Jesus though his pierced feet 2
I want to be there at the roll call 3
I want to tell the story I love so well 2
I was once a sinner, but I came 47
I will not leave you comfortless (Miles) 2
I will not let thee go until thou bless me even here 2
I will seek to be a blessing 5
I'd like to be a child again 2
If a cross I bear 3
If pathless forests meet my view 7
If the voice of God should come to you today 22
If to Christ our only King 36
If you are a loafah an' a drunkard 4
If you have knelt before your God in prayer 2
I'll cling to him, whose pierced feet 2
I'll cling to thee, Jesus, in joy and in pain 2
I'll lift up my head and rejoicing I'll sing 2
I'll never cease to love him, he's done so much for me 4
I'll patiently wait on each promise 1
I'm traveling now on the safest road 9
I'm weary of bearing my burden 6
In a manger low, in a cattle shed 3
In my heart I have a song 2
In the beauty of the earth and the glowing skies 4
In the gardens of the world 1
In the glory of the early morning 2
In the meadows green 1
In the sky the stars are shining 1
In the strength of God 1
In the tomb they laid him 1
In the word of God is a wondrous plan 2
In thy hands, O Jesus, all my life I place 2
Is there on your heart a burden 2
Is there One who can feed the hungry soul 2
It may be in the valley, where countless dangers hide 58

Jesus Christ my pardon purchased 3
Jesus, I have come to thee 3
Jesus in the morning when I wake 2
Jesus knows my cares 3
Jesus, my Savior, calls in tones so clear 3
Jesus, my Savior, when I stand and view 2
Jesus, the Son, who came to save us 2
Jesus, to thee I kneel in sweet submission 2
Jesus, to thy mighty name 1
Jesus, we plead in one accord 2
Joy is springing in this soul of mine and a song is in my heart 4
Just a little nearer, speaks a loving voice 3
Just a step from here to heaven 2
Just beyond the river Jordan 1
Just beyond the river Jordan, just across its chilling tide 11
Just to have the loving heart of Jesus 3
Kings of the earth dwell in palaces fair 2
Lead on, King of Love 1
Lead on, not with the sword the brave of the earth are wielding 1
Let every tribe and ration 1
Let me serve thee more and more 1
Life is but a moment that soon will be past 2
Life is but a span in the measure of years 2
Life is full of sunshine when the sun 3
Life is like the rolling ocean 2
Like an army marching Come the children 1
Listen to the song the birds are singing 2
Living for the Master only 2
Lo! an angel host descending 3
Long ago I lost my evil love for sinning 5
Look up when all the way is dark 5
Lord, bless the songs thy people sing 1
Lord, let my eyes be quick to see 2
Lullaby, Lullaby, Angels guard thy sleeping 2
Lying in a manger, see the Child 1
March on, O sons of God 6
Mid the throng in which I'm daily living 3
My Father's house above 3
My heart is singing as the days go by 3
My lifeboat is sailing across the sea of time 3
My Lord has done so much for me, through all the passing days 3
My sins became so heavy 1
My sins, O the peace giving thought 2
My sins were many, without a doubt 3
My soul had long been seeking peace and rest 2
My trust I place now and ever 6
My way was not the right way 3
Myriads of fragrant flowers 2
Name of all the names the dearest 3
Never friendless, I have a wonderful friend 3
Never mind the weather, dark or fair 5
Night is over Now once more 1
No caste nor creed, nor party pride 2
No matter where you may roam, friend, someone cares 2
Nothing have I to offer worth his praise 2
Now Children's Day is over 2
O come and walk with me 2
O for words to sing unto Christ my King 4
O Friend of sinners, I know thy great compassion 3
O garden lowly, earthly yet holy 2
O give ear to our cry O Lord 3
O happy Christian, who knows his sin forgiven 2
O how marvelous, O how wonderful 2
O I'm travelling, hallelujah 2
O joyous bells of Easter morning 2
O let us to the tomb now wend 3
O radiant morn, when Jesus was born 2
O sin of mine, that bowed his head 2
O sinner, your Savior now waiting stands 7
O starry night, with a holy 1
O the joyous greetings we shall see 2
O the wondrous love the Father shows 3
O what a change from a world of despair 7
O what comfort is mine when the love-light I see 2
Over the battlements of heaven 8
O'er the hills and valleys let the tidings fly 2
Over the sea, wild and free comes a call to you and me 2
Oft perplexed by doubt and fear 2
On our way, day by day 1
On the cross my Savior died 1
On the Eastern plain the flocks are sleeping 1
On the mount exalted or in valley low 2
Once so drearily we scanned the cloudy sky 1
Once upon the cross Jesus died for me 2
One more day of service ends 2
Onward, onward, speed thy conq’ring flight 2
Open, O gates of glory 2
Open wide the windows of your soul and find 2
Other folks may not approve me 2
Out on the ocean my frail bark will glide 2
Over all a God of love is reigning 3
Over and over, I'm tempted and tried 2
Over the valleys the shadows fall 2
Praises be to God for I am glory bound 11
Prepare ye for service, put on the Gospel Armor 2
Press on rejoicing for God is your hope 1
Put on the armor of the gospel 1
Rejoice, rejoice, the King 2
Rejoice! The Lord Jehovah reigns 2
Remember thy Creator and learn to heed his word 7
Ring a message far and wide 3
Ring on, O bells of hope 5
Ring, ring, merry, merry bells 2
Ringing sweetly on the quiet air 2
Room for Jesus, can it be 10
Rouse ye O ye freemen 3
Safe in the fold we've gathered the sheep 4
Said Washington to Betsy Ross 5
Say, what means this great commotion 2
See the foe advancing now, ready for the fray 2
See, where the Mighty Victor 2
Send forth the glad evangel 1

Slumber, Child divine 3
Softly the south winds are sighing 1
Sometimes above the path I tread 2
Sometimes the days seem so dreary 2
Sometimes you grow weary 2
Somewhere on the path of life 3
Song birds come from the south 1
Songbirds come from the south, hasten on your way 1
Sons of God and heirs of heaven 1
Souls are dying everywhere 4

Star of the Christmas morning 2
Star of the midnight gleaming 2
Storms do not alarm me, they sometime must cease 2
Summer days, filled with praise, Now on earth adoring 1
Summer's gift is with us, joy is all around 1
Sweep on to conquer the unknown world 3
Sweet are the roses of Sharon 5
Sweet is the voice of a mother 1
Take Jesus with you in youth's brightest hours 2
Take your burden to Jesus 4
Tarry with me, my Savior, when the morn breaks 8
The army of the cross advances 4
The bells of heaven in tune with earth 1
The birds have their nests, the blessed Master said 2
The clarion call is ringing clear 2
The clouds may hover over me 1
The day is far spent, O Master 2
The days that glide so swiftly down the highway of the past 2
The golden sands are flowing 3
The heavens are telling the glory of God (Miles) 2
The hills are crowned with roses 3
The hope of the world is Calvary 2
The hope of the world is Jesus 3
The love of the Savior of sinners 5
The Master is come and calleth for thee (Miles) 2
The meadows there are always green 2
The mourners left weeping 5
The night winds are singing 1
The path that I have trod 4
The pathway is often so dreary I scarce can see 2
The Savior stands outside thy door 2
The shadows of the night 2
The story of redemption still is told 2
The strangers to God his grace and his love 4
The sunshine I have found will fill each day with joy 7
The wise men sought him and worshiped at his feet 1
The word came unto Noah, Go and build yourself an ark 2
The word of the Lord can never fail 4
The word that God has given, why should a man deny 4
The world that God has given 2
The youth of every land 3
There are many mansions fair 2
There are many souls in darkness living 2
There are sorrows which for us are hard to bear 3

There are two ways before me 5
There is a city, bright and fair (Miles) 2

There is a Shepherd who cares for His own 39
There is hope, O soul, for you 5
There is no cross now standing on Calvary's hill 3
There is no day so dark, but has its gleam 3
There is no storm where Jesus is 2
There is one who always walks beside me 4
There is one who stands upon the threshold 2
There is one whose love is steadfast ever 1
There may be lands as yet unknown 3
There was a Rose in Sharon growing 2
There's a Friend who waits to save thee 1
There's a happy home my soul shall dwell within 1
There's a land of bliss eternal, Where the saints their Lord behold 1
There's a land of peace and plenty 4
There's a land to which my steps are leading 4
There's a mansion that is waiting over there 3
There's a message borne 2
There's a mighty army marching, which can never be dismayed 1
There's a mother on her knees in prayer 4
There's a name that makes my happiness complete 2
There's a new name written down in glory 2
There's a robe that I shall wear 3
There's a shout in the camp, keep the fires brightly burning 13
There's a wedding feast preparing 3
They crucified him who knew no sin 2
They nailed my Lord upon the tree 7
This is my salvation, Jesus died for me 2
This land through which I journey, is beautiful to me 4
This the morn Christ was born, long ago 2
Though all the world may pass me by 2
Though many, many years may pass away 3
Though the tomb essayed to hold him 4
Thou shalt not have, so says the Lord 6
Though I know I must go through the valley low 2
Though the hand of winter touches hill and plain 2
Though the storms of life may gather 2
Though the world allure with its gilded charm 5
Through the heavy losses, and unyielding crosses 2
Through the Savior, crucified 1
Thy white stars laid in heaven's blue 3
Time stands and waits while we go rushing by 3
'Tis the Lord who redeems us, who has shown the way 3
Toiling, and often weary 2
Trusting in Jesus from day to day 3
Trusting Jesus, trusting every day 1
Trusting though the clouds may gather heavy overhead 2
'Twas love that gave at greatest cost 3
'Twas the life of Christ, my Lord 8
'Twas when I surrendered to Christ my all 2
Una vez perdido vivía yo 2
Unto him who rose in his glory 1
Up Calvary's hill Jesus patiently trod 10
Uplifted high on Calvary across I see 3
Waken O earth, nor silent 1
Walking in the morning bright 12
Walking with Jesus on Emmaus way 2
We are looking upward every day 2
We are marching on to the Glory land, We fear no foe before us 2
We are sailors on the sea of life 1
We are waiting for the dawning of the day 2
We are willing workers, waiting Jesus' call 2
We believe, O Lord, in the Holy Spirit [Ghost] 4
We come, we come, with happy voices singing joyous songs of praise 1
We walk and talk together 4
Weary and wandering and sunken in sin 4
You may look for me, for I'll be there 1
