The Dreadful Tree

from Our Savior's Alive by David Isaac Rivers

/

lyrics

Jesus cast a look on me,
Give me sweet simplicity
Make me poor and keep me low,
Seeking only You to know
Seeking only You to know

All that feeds my busy pride,
Cast it evermore aside
Bid my will to Yours submit,
Lay me humbly at Your feet
Lay me humbly at Your feet

For way over yonder on the dreadful
tree way over yonder on the dreadful tree
you shed your blood and you died for me

Make me like a little child,
Of my strength and wisdom spoiled
Seeing only in Your light,
Walking only in Your might
Walking only in Your might

Leaning on Your loving breast,
Where a weary soul can rest
Feeling well the peace of God,
Flowing from Your precious blood
Flowing from Your precious blood

In this posture let me live,
And hosannas daily give
In this temper let me die,
And hosannas ever cry.
