lyrics

may the beat of your drum
match the beat of your pulse
so close, so close
to your skin
may you dance with the trees
and the lakes and the bees
finding purpose in each step

grow your roots in the soil of the land of your birth
be baptized in the waters where you learned to swim
climb the mountains close to home
so that the earth you'll see below's
the ground in which you played on as a child
in the years when you were endlessly wild

alleluia,
praise the forests we were wolves in
alleluia,
praise the skies under we danced
alleluia,
praise the creeks we thought were rivers wide
as we crossed on to the other side
so powerful, in love with life

grow your roots in the soil of the land of your birth
be baptized in the waters where you learned to swim
climb the mountains close to home
so that the earth you'll see below's
the land where you have blossomed, grown

every year grown taller
every day grown wiser
every second grown older
than you were before

raise your hands to the sky
you played under as a child
and touch the ground that's raised you high
each summer sky, the love of my life
my soul finds peace with you
