New Roots Lyrics by Coby James

Mixtape: Side A - EP

2021

[Verse 1]
Wish I could go back in time to the place
I first heard You speak
Conversations with You on my roof where
I told You everything
Just a boy with a dream, I was fifteen
Didn't know it'd be hard on me leaving
Didn't think I'd be here reminiscing
The home I'm missing

[Pre-Chorus]
The maker of the stars
Is holding up my heart

[Chorus]
And I see the pieces You're putting together
And I see the seasons You're changing for better
I do, I do, I do
You're building something new
Out of the broken, in prayers left unspoken
New doors being opened as others are closing
It's true, it's true, it's true
You're building something new

[Post-Chorus]
And You're putting down new roots
So I will trust in You
God, You're putting down new roots

[Verse 2]
When I miss my mom, miss my dad
Miss my home and the wide open skies
In the mystery, the unseen
I know You will be, be my guide
And every fear in my heart You are shifting
I'm still a child of a God who is with me
With every end comes a brand new beginning
A new beginning

[Pre-Chorus]
The maker of the stars
Is holding up my heart

[Chorus]
And I see the pieces You're putting together
And I see the seasons You're changing for better
I do, I do, I do
You're building something new

Out of the broken, in prayers left unspoken
New doors being opened as others are closing
It's true, it's true, it's true
You're building something new

[Post-Chorus]
And You're putting down new roots
So I will trust in You
God, You're putting down new roots

[Interlude]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh (It's a new season but I'm running after You)
Oh-oh-oh (I may be leaving but I'm running after, running after)

[Chorus]
I see the pieces You're putting together
I see the seasons You're changing for better
I do, I do, I do
You're building something new, oh
And out of the broken, in prayers left unspoken
New doors being opened as others are closing
It's true, it's true, it's true
You're building something new

[Post-Chorus]
And You're putting down new roots
So I will trust in You
God, You're putting down new roots
