The tree of life, how sweet the fruit,
生命樹果,甘甜、豐盈,
1
The tree of life, how sweet the fruit,
生命樹果,甘甜、豐盈,
With God as life complete.
是神來作生命。
I once was dead, but now I live,
前我死枯,如今活著;
Was starved, but now I eat.
前饑,今享豐盛。
2
’Twas God that brought me to the tree,
是神領我到生命樹,
With Christ Himself as meat;
享受神的基督。
How precious did that tree become
其中滋味,甘甜、滿足,
When I began to eat.
當我親近我主。
3
The Lord Himself is food to me,
基督是我生命源頭,
He is my life supply;
作我屬天食物;
He will my pure enjoyment be,
祂是我的純淨享受,
None else can satisfy.
祂外再無滿足。
4
I freely eat this living tree,
我今歡享這生命樹,
For eating is the way
此路我已得著!
To put God’s life inside of me,
今藉吃喝,生命加多,
To live by Him today.
我就因祂活著。
