Like trees on Zion’s sacred hill,
The saints in order grow,
Planted of God, whose care and skill,
Their laden branches show.
Watered by heavenly showers, they yield
A rich and large increase;
And every spreading bow is filled
With fruits of righteousness.
Like withered branches on the vine,
Professors oft are found;
But saints inspired with grace divine,
With life and fruit abound.
Jesus, thou art the vine, and we
The lesser branches are;
Oh may we still abide in thee,
And fruit abundant bear.
