Down in the dirt buried deep
There is a promise there's a seed
And with some Sun and with some rain
A little shelter from the pain
With some patience and some time you'll see

It grow and grow
Stretch your arms up to the sky
And like a bird you'll learn to fly and grow

Some fall upon the rocky ground
Does anyone hear when they cry out
Some fall upon a bed of thorns
Guess you can't help where you're born
Lord pick them up with your hand
'Place them in the good land so they can

Grow, and grow
Stretch your arms up to the sky
And like a bird you'll learn to fly

And grow, and grow
Let your branches spread
And bloom from that seed inside of you you'll grow And grow

And with some Sun and with some rain
A little shelter from the pain
With some patience and some time you'll see
It grow and grow
