The Jesus Tree

I've got an old friend, we talk most every day
Just an old oak tree, he ain't got much to say
No matter how far away I roam
He'll be there for me

Out in the backyard, in the morning light
He kinda looks like Jesus, if you turn just right
Heavenly foliage, come on down
And see my Jesus tree

Summertime shadows, sleep on the ground
Like fading old memories, we all gather round
Pull up a chair now, in the healing shade
Of the Jesus tree

The leaves of autumn, falling like rain
Waiting on springtime, he's gonna rise again
It's a modern-day miracle, come on down
And see the Jesus tree

The radio playing, Silent Night
A crown of neon, blinking in the pale moonlight
My holiday savior, come on down
And see the Jesus tree

When the sky is crying, and thundering pain
I lean on your wisdom, to get me right again
If you're covered in sorrow, get on down
To the Jesus tree

I've got an old friend, we talk most every day
Just an old oak tree, he ain't got much to say
Heavenly foliage, come on down
And see the Jesus tree
See the Jesus tree
And see my Jesus tree
