Take Root - 2011

HA! I forgot about this song. But I have a recording! I recorded this maybe June 2011? I wanted to take a jab at a faster song and I was at that point in my spiritual life fixated on rooting myself and my family in the Word of God. Revelation 22:16 says Jesus is the Root. Proverbs, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Matthew,...  the word "Root" fills 3 pages in this search! Anyway, here's the recording.

This song is ok. I am the words aren't that great. like the word "declared"... doesn't fit musically... the melody needs tweaking too. This song definitely needs to be stay in the green house.

LORD Jesus thank You for continuing to teach me about Yourself.


Take Root - jo koo | Muziboo

- v1,2 & bridge not in recording

You declared
You’re the vine
You’re Emmanuel
Turned water into wine

You proclaimed
You’re the One
The Messiah
and Your Father’s only Son

You have the power
to change me inside out
You are the answer
I know, Prince of Peace
Let me

take root root root
in Your word
in Your Kingdom
in the solid ground
hang on on on
onto You
to Your promises
Your righteousness

I declare
You’re the vine
You’re Emmanuel
Turned water into wine

I believe
You’re the One
The Messiah
and my God’s only Son

Hide me from the breath of every wind
let my roots stretch deep
Renew my Spirit with Your breath of life
My heart is fixed, O God
I will sing and give praise from within
