Appletree

My roots have dug deep in the ground
My trust is firm and strong
My branches reach toward the sky
And birds fill them with song

My blossoms promise fruit to come
My fruit is made to share
And though my load is often great,
It's never more than I can bear!

My life is like an apple tree
Growing from a seed
Earth and sun and water
Are all I ever need
Earth and sun and water
Are all, they're all I need

The earth in which I grow is life
The sun I need is love
And faith's the water I receive
From the heavens up above

My orchard's filled with other trees:
I need not stand alone
Together, family and friends
Give pleasure to this home

My life is like an apple tree
Growing from a seed
Earth and sun and water
Are all I ever need
Earth and sun and water
Are all, they're all I need

winds blow harsh and cold and cruel
And I no longer see the light
I know my fellow trees are there
To help me through the night!

My life is like an apple tree
Growing from a seed
Earth and sun and water
Are all I ever need
Yes, earth and sun and water
Are all, they're all I need

The wind has scattered all my fruit
But look, its seeds have grown
And little saplings have taken root
Here in my orchard home
One day my leaves will fall for good
And my sap will no more flow,
But I'll be comforted, assured
That this orchard still will grow!

My life's been like an apple tree
Growing from a seed
Earth and sun and water
Were all I'd ever need
Yes, earth and sun and water
Were all, were all I'd need
Earth and sun and water
Were all, were all I'd need
