A Fruitful Tree

I want to be a fruitful tree
And bring forth fruit continually.
Let my leaf and blossom grow
And fragrance sprinkle to and fro.

I want to drink from holy streams
And meditate on Godly “themes”.
Let my spirit not grow old
But to God’s tenets keep firm hold.

I will prosper and drink deep.
All God’s wisdom I will keep,
That I might be a fruitful tree
And bear good fruit continually.

“Blessed is the man...whose delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
Psalm 1:1-3 KJV
