Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
Away from the Vine, a branch on its own
Will wither and die, discarded, alone
If you remain in me, and My Words remain in you
There's nothing that's good in the world you can't do
Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
If sometimes it seems your world falls apart
Just listen to Me, take My Words to heart
My Father prunes you now, so you will fruit plentifully
You're part of the Vine so remain in Me
Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
I Am your life
Live joyfully
And be who you are
In tune with Me
Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
Hosea 14:4-8
I will heal their apostasy;
I will love them freely,
for my anger has turned from them.
I will be like the dew to Israel;
he shall blossom like the lily;
he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon;
his shoots shall spread out;
his beauty shall be like the olive,
and his fragrance like Lebanon.
They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow;
they shall flourish like the grain;
they shall blossom like the vine;
their fame shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols?
It is I who answer and look after you.
I am like an evergreen cypress;
from me comes your fruit.
cf: John 15:1-11, Hosea 14:4-8
