It hasn’t rained for many days
but my fruit will never wither
I’m in the heat but won’t complain
since my roots are in the river
I’m reaching deep and being thankful
No, I won’t die for lack of rain
but will love in any weather
since I can see and know the way
we are one and live together
I’m reaching deep and being thankful
It doesn’t matter if none change
or my leaves get tossed forever
since I am leaving what remains
and my seeds will go to heaven
I’m reaching deep and being thankful
