Coming in the likeness of man, without sin, He gave of Himself.
Planted in the earth as a tree of righteousness, He gives birth.
Coming forth in His likeness, trees of righteousness appear.
With one offering, made perfect in His righteousness, we proclaim.
Called trees of righteousness, we glorify Him, who gave of Himself.
With roots going deep into Him, who became sin, we follow.
Immersed in His identity, we die daily, embracing His cross.
Allowing His likeness to come forth from glory to glory, we rejoice.
Like a palm tree, in His presence, we bear fruit and flourish.
Called trees of righteousness, we proclaim Him who gave all.
Roots spread with trust and hope in Him; He refreshes the soul.
Roots going deep into the soil planted, fruitfulness appears.
Watered from the river of life, there’s no need for anxiety in drought.
Called to spread righteousness to the nations, we shine brightly.
Called trees of righteousness, we go forth in His transforming power.
In His righteousness, we go forth in His fullness, fulfilling His Word.
With the prophetic word to fill all with His presence, His power spreads.
In signs and wonders, His trees of righteousness proclaim His majesty.
Responding heartedly, multitudes in the valley of decision, He draws.
Called trees of righteousness, to Him who draws, we give applause.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me to fully understand all that You accomplished for me on the cross. I desire to be a tree of righteousness whose roots go deep into the soil in which I have been planted. Help me to be all that you have destined me to be.
