Roots

I’ve been through the drought of summer
Weathered winter’s snow
Winds of change have bent me
Still I never broke
But I’ve been sat down by the river
Anchored to the shore
I drink deep of the water
Cause my strength is from the Lord
Let the rain fall, let the wind blow
The more that comes down the stronger I grow
I got roots, I got roots
Cause I’m standing on the truth
It’s you, It’s you
I’m holding onto, I’m holding onto
So deep down in the ground
Firmly planted safe and sound
And I can’t be moved
Oooo, I got roots
I live above the surface
I can’t see under the earth
But the fruit that I’ll be reaping
Starts its life beneath the dirt
So, I’ll hang onto your promise
There will be a harvest
You are always faithful
To finish what you’ve started
I got roots, I got roots
Cause I’m standing on the truth
It’s you, It’s you
I’m holding onto, I’m holding onto
So deep down in the ground
Firmly planted safe and sound
And I can’t be moved
Oooo, I got roots
Your word is a firm foundation
Everyday is a transformation
Standing on the truth of salvation
And I won’t be shaken
I got roots, I got roots
Cause I’m standing on the truth
It’s you, It’s you
I’m holding onto, I’m holding onto
So deep down in the ground
Firmly planted safe and sound
And I can’t be moved
Oooo, I got roots
