Isaiah 11
©2015 Flo Paris Music, Velveteen Songs & Drink Your Tea. Written by Flo Paris Oakes, Katy Bowser & Sandra McCracken (Rain for Roots)
A green shoot will sprout up from Jesse,
The roots will grow a budding branch,
A wolf will dwell with a gentle lamb,
They’ll leap and play in the green, green grass
A little child will lead them,
A little child will lead them,
The lion and the lamb lie down together,
A little child will lead them
A green shoot will sprout up from Jesse
The roots will grow a budding branch
A wolf will dwell with a gentle lamb
They’ll leap and play in the green, green grass
A little child will lead them,
A little child will lead them,
The lion and the lamb lie down together,
A little child will lead them
On that day, the Root of Jesse will be raised high
Standing as banner for the people,
The nations will all come to him
And his dwelling place will be glorious! (Isaiah 11:10)
A green shoot will sprout up from Jesse,
A banner of love like a melody,
Singing, “Come back children, come back, hurry”
Singing over you, singing over me
The good, good King will lead us
The good, good King will lead us
The spirit of the Lord will rest upon Him,
The good, good King will lead us,
The good, good King will lead us,
The lion and the lamb lie down together,
The good, good King will lead us.
