Tend – Emmy Rose, Bethel Music Lyrics

Verse 1:

In the landscape of my life

You don’t rush through any season

You always take Your time

A careful hand, a gentle guide

You take what’s dead away

And You prune what’s runnin’ wild

Chorus:

So be the gardener of my heart, tend the soil of my soul

Break up the fallow ground, cut back the overgrown

And I won’t shy away, I will let the branches fall

So what You want can stay and what You love can grow

Verse 2:

Through the winter, I’m still alive

What You’ve planted in the dirt

Is ever reaching to the light

You prepare me for darkened times

You’ll sustain what You have started

And You’ll teach me to abide

Chorus:

Be the gardener of my heart, tend the soil of my soul

Break up the fallow ground, cut back the overgrown

And I won’t shy away, I will let the branches fall

So what You want can stay and what You love can grow, grow

Interlude:

Have Your way in me, have Your way in me

Let it grow, let it grow, let it grow

Bridge:

I’ll remain in You, You’ll remain in me

And I will trust Your timin’

I’ll remain in You, You’ll remain in me

From the start until the endin’

‘Cause You know better

Chorus:

So be the gardener of my heart, tend the soil of my soul

Break up the fallow ground, cut back the overgrown

And I won’t shy away, I will let the branches fall

So what You want can stay and what You love can grow
