"Roots" lyrics

Jamie MacDonald & The Chosen Lyrics

"Roots"

(Roots run deep)

Have you ever seen a tree by the river?
Have you ever tried tearing one down?
When it's planted by the hand of the Maker
No, it won't come out of that ground

Oh
Let the rain fall, and let the winds blow
Oh
There ain't no letting go

My roots are not in this world
I am a child of Heaven, Heaven
Come hell or high water
I'm held by the Father
And I'm safe when the storm don't sleep
'Cause these roots run deep
(Roots run deep)

I'll stand strong in the heat of the summer
Gonna bloom even through the freeze
'Cause I'm planted by the hand of the Maker
Ain't nothing gonna get to me

My roots are not in this world
I am a child of Heaven, Heaven
Come hell or high water
I'm held by the Father
And I'm safe when the storm don't sleep
'Cause these roots run deep
(Roots run deep)
These roots run deep
(Roots run deep)

I'm not afraid of the tide
I know that flood's gonna rise
I'm gonna lift my eyes
And it won't take me, it won't take me

I'm not afraid of the rain
My Savior knows me by name
I'll face the hurricane
And it won't break me, it won't break me

My roots are not in this world
I am a child of Heaven, Heaven
Come hell or high water
I'm held by the Father
And I'm safe when the storm don't sleep
'Cause these roots run deep
(Roots run deep)
These roots run deep
(Roots run deep)
(Roots run deep)
(Roots run deep)
