Immanuel: The Dwelling Place of God is with His People (Revelation 21:1-6a, 22-27)

The tree of life my soul hath seen,Laden with fruit and always green;The trees of nature fruitless be,Compared with Christ the Apple Tree.His beauty doth all things excel,By faith I know but ne’er can tellThe glory which I now can see,In Jesus Christ the Appletree.For happiness I long have sought,And pleasure dearly I have bought;I missed of all but now I see‘Tis found in Christ the Appletree.I’m weary with my former toil—Here I will sit and rest awhile,Under the shadow I will be,Of Jesus Christ the Appletree.This fruit doth make my soul to thrive,It keeps my dying faith alive;Which makes my soul in haste to beWith Jesus Christ the Appletree.—“Jesus Christ the Appletree” Immanuel: The Dwelling Place of God is with His People (Revelation 21:1-6a, 22-27) Rev.
