Holy Tree Poem by Nastasimir Franovic

Holy olive tree.
The tree of a Holy land.
You have to plant it first.
Decorate, Christmas Eve with a branch of peace.
And your home patron icon.

Olive branch that welcomed Christ.
The olive tree is a symbol of God's peace.
The substance of the holy peace with oil made of it.
May your spirit grow food.
Holy oil burns before in front of icons.
Olive oil is the censer's favorite.

With the holy secret of anointing.
God's servant anoints all your senses.
As a seal of the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Let it be!
The circle was made three times.
Sing the Apostle Paul's verse to the Galatians!

You who are baptized into Christ.
You have been made a temple of God.
Rejoice clothed in Christ!
For baptism, spiritual birth.
Hallelujah!
