Braden McDonald - The Barren Orchard Lyrics

I look all around me
But there's not much to see
A few leafy branches
But I see no fruit on any tree

People should be able
To know exactly where we stand
Simply by seeing
The work of our hands

There simply can not be
Even a hint of compromise
You know, everything we value
Is seen by Father's eyes

I see so few
Trees that bear good fruit
And though many say that they are His
Their faith has such shallow roots

There simply can not be
Even a hint of compromise
You know, everything we value
Is seen by Father's eyes
Don't let Him tell you

Depart from me, ye wicked
Into everlasting fire
For I gave my all to save you
But you chose your own desires
I was cold and hungry
And you looked the other way
What happened to your commitment
Out in the light of day?

I used to think that I was saved
I sure believed, and I sometimes prayed
But my actions told all there is to tell
And I have no doubt I was on my way to Hell

Until one night when I was dreaming
And I talked to an angel who explained the meaning
That my life was over and I died in sin
And it was just too late to make the choice again

There simply can not be
Even a hint of compromise
You know, everything we do
Is seen by Father's eyes
Don't let Him tell you

Depart from me, ye cursed
Into everlasting fire
For I gave my Son to save you
But you chose your own desires
I was cold and hungry
And you looked the other way
You ignored my servant Jesus
And today is Judgment Day

Judgment Day
