1. 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, | |||
2. His beauties 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. | |||
3. For happiness I long have sought, | |||
By pleasures I have dearly bought; | |||
I missed of all! but now I see | |||
'Tis found in Christ, the apple tree. | |||
4 I'm wearied with my former toil, | |||
But here I'll sit and rest awhile, | |||
Under the shadow I will be, | |||
Of Jesus Christ, the apple tree. | |||
5. With great delight I'll make my stay, | |||
There's none shall fright my soul away; | |||
Amongst the sons of men I see | |||
There's none like Christ the apple tree. | |||
6. I'll sit and eat this fruit divine, | |||
It cheers my heart like sprightly wine; | |||
Oh! now this fruit is sweet to me, | |||
That grows on Christ, the apple tree. | |||
7. This fruit doth 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.}} | |||
