Evergreen

I tried to believe it

But the snow settled in

If you live by the seasons you’ll die in the end

I tried to redeem it

But along came the wind

And my prayers for redemption were too broken to mend

Grow me into something new again

Fill me with the breath that never ends

If seeds have got to die to turn to trees

Then come make me evergreen

The angels were guarding

Some garden I knew

But it’s so many years since I lived there with you

And I think I believe you

But I’m scared that it’s true

If you live by the seasons, you’ll never be new

Grow me into something new again

Fill me with the breath that never ends

If seeds have got to die to turn to trees

Then come make me evergreen

I’m showing my branches, I’m showing my name

In seasons of drought and in seasons of rain

But I heard that you know and you love me the same

So come make me evergreen

Grow me into something new again

Fill me with the breath that never ends

If seeds have got to die to turn to trees

Then come make me evergreen
