Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
Away from the Vine, a branch on its own
Will wither and die, discarded, alone
If you remain in me, and My Words remain in you
There's nothing that's good in the world you can't do
Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
If sometimes it seems your world falls apart
Just listen to Me, take My Words to heart
My Father prunes you now, so you will fruit plentifully
You're part of the Vine so remain in Me
Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
I Am your life
Live joyfully
And be who you are
In tune with Me
Stay living in Me, you are branches of mine
And you will bear fruit, because I Am the Vine
John 15:1-11
I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.
Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself,
unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; a you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him,
he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers;
and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish,
and it will be done for you. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. As the Father has loved me,
so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments
and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
