Like a tree by the water
I will reach for heaven on high
Here by the stream my roots travel deep
This river will never run dry

Every season I will stand
In the Winter, Spring or Summer,
When the storm winds bend me down
I will lift my head I know my anchor holds

Like a tree by the water
I will reach for heaven on high
Here by the stream my roots travel deep
This river will never run dry

In a dry and barren land
Through the drought I will not wither
There’ll be harvest from your hand
Though we sow in tears we’ll reap with shouts of joy

Like a tree by the water
I will reach for heaven on high
Here by the stream my roots travel deep
This river will never run dry

Bridge:
I delight in the law of the Lord
Day and night in the Word of the Lord
I delight in the law of the Lord
Day and night in your Word O my Lord
But the wicked will not stand
Will not stand

Like a tree by the water
I will reach for heaven on high
Here by the stream my roots travel deep
This river will never run dry

Like a tree by the water
I will reach for heaven on high
Here by the stream my roots travel deep
This river will never run dry
