esus Christ the Apple Tree

The tree of life my soul hath seen
|
Laden with fruit and always green
|
The tree of life my soul hath seen
|
Laden with fruit and always green
|
The trees of nature fruitless be
|
Compared with Christ the apple tree
|
|
His beauty doth all things excel
|
By faith I know but ne'er can tell
|
His beauty doth all things excel
|
By faith I know but ne'er can tell
|
The glory which I now can see
|
In Jesus Christ the apple tree.
|
|
For happiness I long have sought
|
And pleasure dearly I have bought
|
For happiness I long have sought
|
And pleasure dearly I have bought
|
I missed of all but now I see
|
'Tis found in Christ the apple tree.
|
|
I'm weary with my former toil
|
Here I will sit and rest a while
|
I'm weary with my former toil
|
Here I will sit and rest a while
|
Under the shadow I will be
|
Of Jesus Christ the apple tree.
|
|
This fruit does make my soul to thrive
|
It keeps my dying faith alive
|
This fruit does make my soul to thrive
|
It keeps my dying faith alive
|
Which makes my soul in haste to be
|
With Jesus Christ the apple tree.
