CCXXXVII. Abiding in CHRIST necessary to our Fruitfulness.

LORD of the Vineyard, we adore
That Pow'r and Grace divine,
Which plants our wild, our barren Souls
In Christ the living Vine.

For ever may they there abide,
And from that vital Root
Be Influence spread thro' ev'ry Branch
To form and feed the Fruit.

Shine forth, my GOD, the Clusters warm
With Rays of sacred Love;
Till Eden's Soil, and Zion's Streams
The gen'rous Plant improve.
