1
Once a sinner, now I’m saved;
Still, I lack in many ways.
Lord, it feels like nothing has changed.
Patient, yet I cannot wait;
Loving, yet not void of hate;
Lord, I don’t want to stay the same.
Thought I had to come up with my own solutions,
But You’re showing me the way to take.

Chorus:
I don’t have to know my complications;
I just need to grow in the Lord,
Enjoying Him day by day,
Pursuing Him with the saints,
Absorbing Him just as a branch would in the vine.
There’s no need for me to struggle and to strive;
Just to grow in life.

2
Eating Your word when I wake,
Nothing should get in the way;
Calling ceaselessly on Your name.
Meeting You with all the saints,
Feasting on Your boundless grace,
Praising as I call it a day.
I’ve let go of all religious regulations;
Found a new, enjoying way to take.

Just to Grow in Life - WJ, TS

Among all the trees in the garden of Eden, only two are mentioned by name: (1) the tree of life and (2) the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:9). These two trees represent two principles by which a Christian can live: (1) the principle of life and (2) the principle of good and evil.

Eating the tree of the knowledge of good and evil results in death (Genesis 2:17), and the devil is the source of death (Hebrews 2:14). Christ is the source of life (John 11:25, 14:6); He came that we may have life (John 10:10; Colossians 3:4); and He even presented Himself as a vine (John 15:5)—a low-growing, accessible, fruit-bearing tree!

Today, every Christian is like a miniature “garden of Eden.” According to Romans 8:6, our mind is between two choices—just like Adam and Eve in the garden. If we choose to set our mind on the flesh, the result is death. If we choose to set our mind on our human spirit, where Christ dwells (Romans 8:10, 16), the result is life and peace!

Contacting Christ as life in our human spirit is the way to eat Him as the tree of life (John 6:57; Revelation 2:7). At the end of the Bible, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is gone, but the tree of life is an eternal enjoyment to the believers in the New Jerusalem (Revelation 22:14).

This song was written for a youth conference in April 2023. Thanks to the “little lilies” in our local youth group for recording with us!

Christ Is the Tree of Life

A song dedicated to the memory of a 1st cousin, twice removed, that I never had the chance to know. God bless all the young souls, lost to fighting the wars, of old men

For those who wanna jam with their eyes closed, tada! Just some hymns with the same four chords - C G Am F. 

Made this with Sam in the last few days of training. Those were the days... 


Lyrics:
(Part 1)
For we do not have a High Priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all respects like us, yet without sin (yet without sin).

Whom having not seen you love (you love).

But unto you who fear My name (x2).

The love of God, and the grace of Christ, and fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you, be with you all (be with you all, be with you all).

(Part 2)
He gives power to the faint, and to those who have no vigour He multiplies strength.

Thus says Jehovah, heaven is My throne (heaven is My throne).

I’m so happy here with my Father dear.

Some, these days, would tell us that our Jesus is not food, that we only need to know about Him and do good. But we're glad to tell you, brothers, it's just not that way. Jesus is the bread of life, we eat Him every day. 

We are the church, ekklesia.

Remind me, Lord, the reason why I live and breathe. Remind me, Lord, that I'm a vessel for Your purpose.

God is rich in mercy because of His great love. He manifested this by sending His Son. 

The church is the building up of all God’s chosen and redeemed, regenerated, and transformed people.

What things were gains to me, these now I count as loss. Jesus has set me free from what I was.

Now from my heart comes a happy song. It’s just for you, Lord; there’s only one. J-E-S-U-S, I love You (I love You).

I love You, Jesus, deep down in my heart (x2). Talk about deep, deep, down, down, deep down in my heart.

Joy (x10).

(Part 3)
(Key change - D A Bm G)

I know not what awaits me, God kindly veils my eyes.

God hath not promised skies always blue, flower-strewn pathways all our lives through.

Drawn to the Cross which Thou has blest, with healing gifts for souls distrest. To find in Thee my life, my rest, Christ crucified, I come. 

Take time to behold Him, speak oft with thy Lord. Abide in Him always and feed on His Word.

Jesus, living Word.

It’s not a message that I’ve heard, not some points that I have learned, not a song or verse I know by heart.

I am the living bread, which came down out of heaven.

And he said to me, Drink of My river of water of life; drink of what truly satisfies. My supply will not fail you, and My river will carry you through, if you come to Me, your loving King, and drink.

O Jesus, Jesus, dearest Lord, forgive me if I say. 

I am one with Thee, Lord Jesus, one in spirit now with Thee. All Thyself I now possess, Lord; all Thou art now lives in me.

All in all forever, only Christ I'll sing. Everything is in Christ, and Christ is everything.

Hymn #593

1	All I have in Adam is but sin and death,
 	I in Christ inherit life and righteousness;
 	When in flesh abiding, Adam I express,
 	But when in the spirit Christ is manifest.
2	When I am in Adam, though I may not sin,
 	Unto death, a sinner, sentenced I have been;
 	When in Christ I need not righteously to act,
 	I’m already righteous, justified in fact.
3	In the flesh I need no effort to express
 	Marks of Adam’s nature and its sinfulness;
 	In the spirit I need not to strive or strain,
 	I can live as He is and in spirit reign.
4	Thru my death with Christ, from Adam I am free,
 	Thru my life with Christ, new life is giv'n to me!
 	Minding not the flesh, old Adam cannot move,
 	Minding just the spirit, life divine I prove.
5	Minding just the spirit is God’s saving way,
 	Minding just the spirit, Christ we will display;
 	Minding just the spirit, we can overcome,
 	Minding just the spirit, we the race may run.
6	Minding just the spirit, we the cross will know,
 	And His resurrection pow’r thru us will flow;
 	Minding just the spirit, Christ will live thru me,
 	And His life within will reach maturity.
7	In the spirit Christ is life and all to me,
 	Strengthening and blessing all-inclusively;
 	Living in the spirit, holiness I prove,
 	And the triune God within my heart doth move.

All I Have In Adam Is But Sin And Death
