Verse 1:
     BB      B/D#B/D#    E MajorE
I've been through the drought of summer
     F#F#   G# minorG#m
Weathered winter snow
F#F#    BB      E MajorE       F#F#    BB
Winds of change have bent me, still, I never broke
     B/D#B/D# E MajorE             F#F#   G# minorG#m
I've been set down by the river, anchored by the shore
F#F#   BB      E MajorE
I drink deep of the water
           F#F#    BB
'Cause my strength is from the Lord

Pre-Chorus:
  BB    B/D#B/D# E MajorE
So let the rain fall, let the wind blow
    F#F#    G# minorG#m            F#F# BB E MajorE
The more that comes down, the stronger I grow

     BB  B/D#B/D#    E MajorE
I've got roots, I've got roots
        F#F#   G# minorG#m
And I'm standing on the truth
    F#F#  BB    E MajorE
And it's You, and it's You
      F#F# BB
I'm holding on to, holding on to
  B/D#B/D# E MajorE           F#F#    G# minorG#m
Deep down in the ground, firmly planted, safe and sound
   F#F#  BB E MajorE     F#F# BB
And I can't be moved, in You, (oh) I've got roots

Verse 2:
 BB   B/D#B/D#   E MajorE          F#F#    G# minorG#m
I live above the surface, I can't see under the earth
    F#F#     BB    E MajorE
But the fruit that I'll be reaping
        F#F#     BB
Starts its life beneath the dirt
       B/D#B/D#  E MajorE            F#F#  G# minorG#m
So I hang on to Your promise that there will be a harvest
    F#F#   BB   E MajorE
'Cause You are always faithful
      F#F#    BB
You finish what You started

Chorus:
     BB  B/D#B/D#    E MajorE
I've got roots, I've got roots
        F#F#   G# minorG#m
And I'm standing on the truth
    F#F#  BB    E MajorE
And it's You, and it's You
      F#F# BB
I'm holding on to, holding on to
  B/D#B/D# E MajorE           F#F#    G# minorG#m
Deep down in the ground, firmly planted, safe and sound
   F#F#  BB E MajorE     F#F# BB
And I can't be moved, in You, (oh) I've got roots

 Standing on the truth of Salvation

And I won't be shaken
