Like A Tree (Psalm 1)
Blessed is the one who loves Your word
Your ways are his delight
He knows that he needs it
Eat, sleeps, and breathes it
Thinking on it day and night
But sad for the one who walks away
Sits down with all the scoffers
Building his kingdom, calling it freedom
Chasing after what the world offers
I wanna be like a tree by the river (tree by the river)
Oh, plant me down by the deep, deep water (deep, deep water)
When the sun gets hot, my leaves won't wither (leaves won't wither)
Oh, plant me down like a tree by the river
Oh, plant me down by Your deep, deep water
I wanna be like a mighty oak
Roots growing strong and deep
When the wind blows, the roots gonna hold
'Cause You're holding on to me
Yeah, You're holding on to me, yeah
I wanna be like a tree by the river (tree by the river)
Oh, plant me down by the deep, deep water (deep, deep water)
When the sun gets hot, my leaves won't wither (leaves won't wither)
Oh, plant me down like a tree by the river
Oh, plant me down by Your deep, deep water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
I wanna be like a tree by the river (tree by the river)
Plant me down by the deep, deep water (hmm)
When the sun gets hot, my leaves won't wither (leaves won't wither)
Oh, plant me down like a tree by the river
Oh, plant me down by Your deep, deep water
Let's go to the river
Let's go to the water
Your ways are his delight
He knows that he needs it
Eat, sleeps, and breathes it
Thinking on it day and night
But sad for the one who walks away
Sits down with all the scoffers
Building his kingdom, calling it freedom
Chasing after what the world offers
I wanna be like a tree by the river (tree by the river)
Oh, plant me down by the deep, deep water (deep, deep water)
When the sun gets hot, my leaves won't wither (leaves won't wither)
Oh, plant me down like a tree by the river
Oh, plant me down by Your deep, deep water
I wanna be like a mighty oak
Roots growing strong and deep
When the wind blows, the roots gonna hold
'Cause You're holding on to me
Yeah, You're holding on to me, yeah
I wanna be like a tree by the river (tree by the river)
Oh, plant me down by the deep, deep water (deep, deep water)
When the sun gets hot, my leaves won't wither (leaves won't wither)
Oh, plant me down like a tree by the river
Oh, plant me down by Your deep, deep water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
Plant me, plant me, plant me by the river
Wash me, wash me, wash me with Your water
I wanna be like a tree by the river (tree by the river)
Plant me down by the deep, deep water (hmm)
When the sun gets hot, my leaves won't wither (leaves won't wither)
Oh, plant me down like a tree by the river
Oh, plant me down by Your deep, deep water
Let's go to the river
Let's go to the water
