In the vineyard of God his Life flows through the Vine.
Every branch that stays true bears much fruit as a sign
That the branch loves the Vine and the Life he supplies.
As each branch draws its Life, you will be good and wise,
And the Gardener’s praise will reach up to the skies:
The whole world will resound with the Gardener’s repute
As the beautiful vineyard produces its fruit.
So remain true to Jesus; and as your fruit grows,
Then his love and his life will be what the world knows.
