 1  A flowing river and a tree,

    Eden's outstanding features are,

    Man to supply with food and drink

       That he may live fore'er.

 

God is in Christ to be my supply,

God as the Spirit nourisheth me;

If upon Christ in spirit I feed,

   Filled with His life I'll be.

 

 2  The tree the glorious Christ does show,

    As living food to man supplied,

    That he God's riches may enjoy,

       Thus to be satisfied.

 

God is in Christ to be my supply,

God as the Spirit nourisheth me;

If upon Christ in spirit I feed,

   Filled with His life I'll be.

 

 3  The river does the Spirit show,

    Coming man's spirit to supply,

    That with God's riches he be filled,

       Holy to be thereby.

 

God is in Christ to be my supply,

God as the Spirit nourisheth me;

If upon Christ in spirit I feed,

   Filled with His life I'll be.

 

 4  The Christ of glory is my life,

    He as the Spirit lives in mine,

    That I with God be fully blent

       And in His image shine.

 

God is in Christ to be my supply,

God as the Spirit nourisheth me;

If upon Christ in spirit I feed,

   Filled with His life I'll be.

 

 5  I would exalt this glorious Christ,

    Ever the Spirit I'd obey,

    Making His glory fully known,

       Filled with His grace for aye.

 

God is in Christ to be my supply,

God as the Spirit nourisheth me;

If upon Christ in spirit I feed,

   Filled with His life I'll be.
