Plant Your Roots

Plant your roots in God’s Love and Word, and

Blossom under His watchful eye. 

For He shall water and care for you. 

The Lord will hoe weeds and loosen soil as you grow. 

When you drop your seeds and let fall your petals

the Lord will then plant you in His garden. 

His garden is with purest water, richest earth, and fairest sunlight.

Never shall you go onto a bonfire;

eternally shall you flourish in His garden.
