1 Are we fruitful branches
Of the living Vine?
Does his life flow freely
Into yours and mine?
Are we growing daily
In his blessed grace,
Bearing precious clusters,
Love, and joy, and peace.
Chorus:
Make us thine, dear Saviour,
Now and ever thine;
True and fruitful branches
Of the living Vine.
2 Ev'ry branch is cared for
By the Father's love,
Ev'ry clinging tendril
He will lift above;
What a sweet abiding
We may ever know,
From this vital union
Wondrous fruit will grow. [Chorus]
3 Rooted in the Saviour,
Growing in his love,
Lifting holy longings
To the light above;
Watered by his Spirit
We shall fruitful be,
Christ his life will give us
More abundantly. [Chorus]
