THE BLACKENED LEAF

 

The blackened leaf falling to the ground

Scorched and burned by worlds on fire

My life was this before I was found

 

Drop it

Plant it

Let it die

 

Shed blood covered cleansed the black

Covered the leaf created a tree

An oak of Righteousness

Rooted grounded in the soil of Christ

 

Drop it

Plant it

Let it die

Let it Live

All you have

You must give

Let it Die

 

The fire comes again to blacken burn and destroy

The world overtakes with cares and strife

Covers that tree engulfed with flame

Burned and battered the tree became 

  

All fruit now gone left only seed 

 

Drop it

Plant it

Let it die

Let it Live

All you have

You must give

Let it Die

Let it Die

Let it Die

Let it Die

Let it

Die

Die

Die

 

With first love single in your eye

Blackened tree standing tall

For all to see for all to know

Roots gone deep into solid ground

Through fire and rain it will not fall
