Their Roots Run Deep (Psalm 1) (alternate)

Verse 1: Blessed is the one who walks not in the counsel of the wicked Nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers But delights in the law of the Lord, meditating day and night Chorus: Like a tree planted by the rivers of water They bear fruit in their season, their leaves never wither Their roots run deep, their faith unshaken In the love of God, they stand, Verse 2: The wind may howl, the rains may pour But they stand firm, like a tree on the shore Their hope is in the Lord, their trust in His name And they prosper, like a tree in its prime Chorus: Like a tree planted by the rivers of water They bear fruit in their season, their leaves never wither Their roots run deep, their faith unshaken In the love of God, they stand, Bridge: The wicked may flourish, like grass in the field But they wither and fade, like autumn leaves that yield But the righteous, like a tree, forever stand A symbol of hope, in God's promised land Chorus: Like a tree planted by the rivers of water They bear fruit in their season, their leaves never wither Their roots run deep, their faith unshaken In the love of God, they stand Chorus: Like a tree planted by the rivers of water They bear fruit in their season, their leaves never wither Their roots run deep, their faith unshaken In the love of God, they stand Chorus: Like a tree planted by the rivers of water They bear fruit in their season, their leaves never wither Their roots run deep, their faith unshaken In the love of God, they stand Chorus: Like a tree planted by the rivers of water They bear fruit in their season, their leaves never wither Their roots run deep, their faith unshaken In the love of God, they stand
