Mill City Music - O Barren Tree Lyrics

O barren tree of Calvary
Where Christ the Savior died
Bearing fruit from the root
Where blood flowed from his side
His sweet death a covering
Shadow where I hide
Crucified with my Christ
Laying down this life
O empty grave at break of day
Where Christ the Victor rose
From the depths now triumphant
O'er our ancient foe
The power of death has lost its grip
Received its final blow
The saints are dressed in righteousness
His bride now newly clothed
O eternal age without dismay
When Christ the King returns
The former ways will pass away
And all our hopes secure
The sting of death now distant
The King will wed his church
So I'll journey forth to my reward
'Til Christ the Lord returns
All the saints with one refrain
Christ alone for endless days
Offered Lamb Risen King
Christ enthroned for eternity
All the saints with one refrain
Christ alone for endless days
Offered Lamb Risen King
Christ enthroned for eternity
All the saints with one refrain
Christ alone for endless days
Offered Lamb Risen King
Christ enthroned for eternity
The sting of death now distant
The King will wed his church
So I'll journey forth to my reward
'Til Christ the Lord returns
'Til Christ the Lord returns
'Til Christ the Lord returns
