Poison Tree
This tree bears strange fruit
There's blood on the leaves, it's dead at the root
The cracked, gray branches are decaying within
Just like the black poison that hangs from it's limbs
Come and dig me up, reach down to the root
Rip the deadness out and plant something new
I am alive, I will abide in the life giving blood of Christ
I tried to tie good fruit
to a tree that had poison all the way through
it rotted and fell off
it was dead to the core
it even killed the ground, I was worse than before
Come and dig me up, reach down to the root
Rip the deadness out and plant something new
I am alive, I will abide in the life giving blood of Christ
I'm grafted in, you've killed my sin
Now I will live, live in Him
Come and dig me up, reach down to the root
Rip the deadness out
I am alive, I wil abide in the life gaven blood of Christ
I'm grafted in, you've killed my sin
Now I will live, I'll live in Him
There's blood on the leaves, it's dead at the root
The cracked, gray branches are decaying within
Just like the black poison that hangs from it's limbs
Come and dig me up, reach down to the root
Rip the deadness out and plant something new
I am alive, I will abide in the life giving blood of Christ
I tried to tie good fruit
to a tree that had poison all the way through
it rotted and fell off
it was dead to the core
it even killed the ground, I was worse than before
Come and dig me up, reach down to the root
Rip the deadness out and plant something new
I am alive, I will abide in the life giving blood of Christ
I'm grafted in, you've killed my sin
Now I will live, live in Him
Come and dig me up, reach down to the root
Rip the deadness out
I am alive, I wil abide in the life gaven blood of Christ
I'm grafted in, you've killed my sin
Now I will live, I'll live in Him
