Jesus Christ the Apple Tree
by Carrie Melbourne

Album: Et Spiritu Sancti

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
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
I missed of all but now I see
Tis found in Christ the Apple Tree

I'm weary of my former toil
Here will I sit and rest awhile
Under the shadow I will be
Of Jesus Christ the Apple Tree

This fruit doth make my soul to thrive
It keeps my dying faith alive
And makes my soul in haste to be
With Jesus Christ the Apple Tree.
