lirik lagu andrew peterson – planting trees
we chose the spot
we dug the hole
we laid the maples in the ground
to have and hold
as autumn falls
to winters sleep
we pray that somehow in the spring
the roots grow deep
and many years from now
long after we are gone
these trees will spread their branches out
and bless the dawn, hmm
he took a plane
to africa
he gathered up into his arms
an orphan son
so many years from now
long after we are gone
this tree will spread its branches out
and bless the dawn
so sit down and write that letter
sign up and join the fight
sink in to all that matters
step out into the light
let go of all that’s p-ssing
lift up the least of these
lean into something lasting
planting trees, hmm, yeah
she rises up
as morning breaks
she moves among these rooms alone
before we wake
and her heart is so full
it overflows
she waters us with love
and the children grow
so many years from now
long after we are gone
these trees will spread their branches out
and bless the dawn
these trees will spread their branches out
and bless someone, hmm
