ABIDE IN ME!

John 15:5
“I am the vine; you are the branches.
If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
This week we have a special new song for you created by Russ Hansen entitled, “Abide in Me.” He’d appreciate your feedback on this song–please send it to him at inspiration@thegoodbookcompany.com.
“Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts” (Colossians 3:16, emphasis added) and “Sing a new song to the Lord!” (Psalm 96:1).

Abide in Me (inspired by John 15:1-11)
[Verse 1]
I am the Vine, My Father tends the field,
Every branch in Me is called to grow and yield.
He tends the ones that bear His fruit,
And prunes them so they’ll flourish too.
By My words you’ve been made clean,
Now remain in Me.
[Pre-Chorus]
A branch alone will fade away,
But life is found when you stay.
[Chorus]
Abide in Me, and I in you,
That’s where the harvest breaks through.
Apart from Me there’s nothing you can do,
But rooted in My love you’ll bear fruit.
Abide in Me, Abide in Me.
[Verse 2]
The Father is glorified to see
A life that blooms abundantly.
When My words are living in your heart,
Step in faith and watch it start.
As the Father has loved Me,
So My love remains in you.
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t drift away,
Stay in My love every day.
[Chorus]
Abide in Me, and I in you,
That’s where the harvest breaks through.
Apart from Me there’s nothing you can do,
But rooted in My love you’ll bear fruit.
Abide in Me, Abide in Me.
[Bridge]
Keep My commands and walk in grace,
You’ll find My presence in that place.
The joy I have I’ll give to you,
A joy that’s full and running over.
A joy that’s full and running over.
[Final Chorus]
Abide in Me, and I in you,
That’s where the harvest breaks through.
The Father’s glory shining bright,
As fruit grows in the Master’s light.
Abide in Me, Abide in Me.
[Outro – response, sung from the believer’s perspective]
The True Vine holds me near,
The Gardener’s hand is always here.
I’ll remain, I’ll never leave,
For all I need is found in You.

Blessings dear hearts! May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
