God’s Intention is to be the Tree of Life

lyricist: J. C.
Composer: J. C.

Every day we muse upon the word

To converse in the presence of the Lord!

When we eat

we breathe Him into us

And we become full of enjoyment.

God’s intention is to be the tree of life

For our enjoyment and our life supply.

We live the Christian life by eating the Lord

For His economy.

We just need to open up our mouth

Call His name

and He feeds us with Himself!

As we heed the sense of life inside

Our appetite’s bigger and deeper.

We must learn to live by Jesus Christ—

He’s the way

the reality and life!

As we love and contact our dear Lord

We are conformed into His image.

Do you have a hoof that’s split in two?

Are you chewing the cud the whole day through?

Spirit

flesh

the new man or the old—

We must be those full of discernment.

Fish with fins and scales to beat the tide;

Birds that fly

and enjoy the seeds of life;

Insects jumping

leaping from the world.

Lord

keep us pure

with Your believers!

Let’s be simple and enjoy the Lord—

Not alone

but with saints in one accord.

Thank You for the church life where we feast—

Our hearts released

full of rejoicing!
