This tree bears strange fruit There's blood on the leaves, it's dead at the root The cracked, gray branches are decaying within Just like the black poison that hangs from it's limbs Come and dig me up, reach down to the root Rip the deadness out and plant something new I am alive, I will abide in the life giving blood of Christ I tried to tie good fruit To a tree that had poison all the way through It rotted and fell off It was dead to the core It even killed the ground, I was worse than before Come and dig me up, reach down to the root Rip the deadness out and plant something new I am alive, I will abide in the life giving blood of Christ I'm grafted in, you've killed my sin Now I will live, live in Him Come and dig me up, reach down to the root Rip the deadness out I am alive, I wil abide in the life gaven blood of Christ I'm grafted in, you've killed my sin Now I will live, I'll live in Him
