Album: Story of My Life
A tree stood tall, high above them all
Many years the tree had grown
It provided shade on a traveler's way
‘Til a woodsman cut it down
Far from it's home, the tree didn't know
That a Savior it would bear
Soon to be part of a much greater plan
For Love would be crucified there
In the Shadow of a Tree
Heaven's light broke through to me
I was blind, now I can see
Here at Jesus' feet
In the shadow of a cross
Perfect Love was pouring out
I found hope, I found peace
When Love found me
In the Shadow of a Tree
Time stood still on that lonely hill
As the sky grew black as night
Forgiveness flowed and mercy was shown
As upon the tree Jesus died
Far from His home, He was buried alone
But this was not the end
An empty tomb and a tree are reminders to me
That Love is risen again
My mind cannot fathom
Why this King gave up His throne
But on that tree He gave you and me
The greatest Love
The world has ever known
