The Tree of Life - Shawna Edwards

The prophet, Lehi, had a vision of the tree of life

He saw it shining in the distance

So beautiful and bright

The sweetest fruit he’d ever tasted

And white as white could be

It filled his soul with joy and gladness

He beckoned to his family:

Come to the tree of life

Partake of the fruit

I feel the love of God

And you’ll feel it too, when you

Come to the tree of life

There’s joy here and peace

The greatest place in all the world to be

Is at the tree!

The tree of life is just a symbol

Of the love of God

The pathway there is straight and narrow

So hold on to the rod

His word will guide us through the darkness

And past the mists of gray

The enemies of God may mock us

But we will boldly stand and say:

Come to the tree of life

Partake of the fruit

I feel the love of God

And you’ll feel it too, when you

Come to the tree of life

There’s joy here and peace

The greatest place in all the world to be

Is at the tree!
