Lyrics
CEDAR OF LEBANON
Words and music by Sam Fasano III
I want to grow like a cedar of Lebanon, with my roots planted deep in the ground.
I?m gonna build me a house way up on the rocks,
Let the water rush all around me now.
It?s so easy to get discouraged, in this fast paced world we live in.
With our bills stacking up our faith breaking down,
We wonder were to begin.
For once I traveled aimlessly, not sure where I was bound
I finally let you rescue me, now my feet are planted firm on the ground.
Chorus
I want to grow like a cedar of Lebanon, with my roots planted deep in the ground
I?m gonna build me a house way up on the rocks,
Let the water rush all around me now.
Bridge
The rain descended and the floods came.
And the wind beat upon the house but it fell not.
For it was built upon a rock.
Are you changing the way it was meant to be or are you giving it to the lord?
His ship is sailing on your sea and he wants you to come aboard.
Now the rain may ruin a child?s day but it could make a farmer?s field grow.
And the wind will stir the dust all around but watch it make a sail boat go.
Chorus
