Hymn 509  

SUBJECT: EXPERIENCE OF CHRIST—AS FOOD
METER: 8.8.8.6. with chorus.
AUTHOR: Witness Lee
COMPOSER: Charles H. Gabriel

1A flowing river and a tree,
 Eden’s outstanding features are,
 Man to supply with food and drink
  That he may live fore’er.
Chorus  
  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.
2The tree the glorious Christ does show
 As living food to man supplied,
 That he God’s riches may enjoy,
  Thus to be satisfied.
3The river does the Spirit show,
 Coming man’s spirit to supply,
 That with God’s riches he be filled,
  Holy to be thereby.
4The 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.
5I would exalt this glorious Christ,
 Ever the Spirit I’d obey,
 Making His glory fully known,
  Filled with His grace for aye.
