Hungry for Christ

My Jesus

The Tree of Life has budded
And borne its saving fruit
From Calvary's crest it's fragrance
Flows sweetly down to us.

My Jesus, mine,
Oh Heaven's Bounty poured out;
From whence all goodness flows --
My Jesus, mine --
Oh River from my God.

The harvest You have promised
Awaits in ripening band,
Full white the fields are glowing
And looking for Your Hand.

My Jesus -- mine,
Oh Heaven's Bounty poured out!
From whence all goodness flows --
My Jesus, mine --
Oh River from my God.

The chorus of Your angels
Sing sweetly this refrain --
Oh gentle Jesus, save them,
So they may be thine again!

My Jesus, mine,
Oh Heaven's Bounty poured out --
From whence all goodness flows --
My Jesus, mine --
Oh River from my God.
