Description of Illustration: the Lion of Judah in blue and gold, The image appears in the New Testament in Revelation 5:5:
"And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the
tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and
to loose the seven seals thereof." This is widely regarded as a
reference to Jesus among Christians.
Inspired by the Lion of Judah, C. S. Lewis used a lion named Aslan to represent Jesus in The Chronicles of Narnia.

The human race are as trees in the vast forest of this world, various in their forms and character, and in their degrees of utility, strength, and beauty: but they are alike destined to fall under the ax of the undistinguishing and inexorable feller.
They are then made use of according to their different qualities -- some are applied to the noblest purposes. The cedars of Lebanon are the temple of the Most High; while the vile and worthless are cast into the fire and perish.
People compared to trees in scripture? Here are just a few examples from The New King James Bible:
Psalm 92:12
12
The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree,
He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13
Those who are planted in the house of the Lord
Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14
They shall still bear fruit in old age;
They shall be fresh and flourishing,
15
To declare that the Lord is upright;
He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
Matthew 3:10
10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
Numbers 24:6
Like valleys that stretch out,
Like gardens by the riverside,
Like aloes planted by the Lord,
Like cedars beside the waters.
Psalm 1:3
Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2
But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
3
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
Psalm 52:8
8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
Psalm 144:12
12 That
our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters
may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:

Frances Jane van Alstyne (née Crosby; March 24, 1820 – February 12, 1915), more commonly known as Fanny Crosby, was an American mission worker, poet, lyricist, and composer. A member of the Sixth Avenue Bible Baptist Church in Brooklyn, New York,
she wrote many hymns together with her pastor, Robert Lowry. She was
one of the most prolific hymnists in history, writing over 8,000 hymns
and gospel songs, with over 100 million copies printed, despite being blind from shortly after birth. She is also known for her teaching, and her rescue mission work. By the end of the 19th century, she was "a household name".
Known as the "Queen of Gospel Song Writers", and as the "Mother of modern congregational singing in America", with most American hymnals containing her work, as "with the possible exception of Isaac Watts and Charles Wesley,
Crosby has generally been represented by the largest number of hymns of
any writer of the twentieth century in nonliturgical hymnals". Her gospel songs were "paradigmatic of all revival music", and Ira Sankey attributed the success of the Moody and Sankey evangelical campaigns largely to Crosby's hymns. Some of Crosby's best-known songs include "Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour", "Blessed Assurance", "Jesus Is Tenderly Calling You Home", "Praise Him, Praise Him", "Rescue the Perishing", and "To God Be the Glory". Because some publishers were hesitant to have so many hymns by one person in their hymnals, Crosby used nearly 200 different pseudonyms during her career.
Crosby wrote over 1,000 secular poems,
and had four books of poetry published, as well as two best-selling
autobiographies. Additionally, she co-wrote popular secular songs, as
well as political and patriotic songs, and at least five cantatas on biblical and patriotic themes, including The Flower Queen,
the first secular cantata by an American composer. Crosby was committed
to Christian rescue missions, and was known for her public speaking.
The hymn, "All The Way My Savior Leads Me" was first published in Brightest and best : a choice
collection of new songs, duets, choruses, invocation and benediction
hymns for the Sunday school and meetings of prayer and praise
(edited by Dr. Lowry and W. Howard Doane) in 1875 by the New York
publisher Biglow & Main. The syllabic meter is 8.7.8.7.D. This hymn
came to Fanny as a result of a prayer. Struggling financially, she
desperately needed some money. As her usual custom, Fanny began to pray.
A few minutes later, a gentleman offered her five dollars, the exact
amount she needed. Later recalling the incident, she said, “I have no
way of accounting for this except to believe that God put it into the
heart of this good man to bring the money.” The poem she wrote afterward
became “All The Way My Savior Leads Me – Aldrin Lapitan.
vs.1
All the way my Savior leads me;
What have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy,
Who through life has been my Guide?
Heav’nly peace, divinest comfort,
Here by faith in Him to dwell!
For I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well;
For I know, whate’er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well. vs.2
All the way my Savior leads me,
Cheers each winding path I tread;
Gives me grace for every trial,
Feeds me with the living Bread.
Though my weary steps may falter,
And my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! A spring of joy I see;
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo! A spring of joy I see. vs.3
All the way my Savior leads me
O the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
In my Father’s house above.
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day
This my song through endless ages—
Jesus led me all the way;
This my song through endless ages—
Jesus led me all the way.
Rich Mullin’s version of “All the Way My Savior Leads Me.”
