You live in a palace, exist in a shack. We see You, the gardener, a tree on Your back. 2 In millions alive, away and abroad; Involved in our life You live down the road. Imprisoned in systems, You long to be free. We see You, Lord Jesus, still bearing Your tree. 3 We hear You, O Christ, in agony cry. For freedom You march, in riots You die. Your face in the papers we read and we see. The tree must be planted by human decree. 4 You choose to be made at one with the earth; The dark of the grave prepares for Your birth. Your death is Your rising, creative Your word: The tree springs to life and our hope is restored. Used With Tune: NORMANDY
