Brandon Heath - Bend Lyrics

I am not my family tree

These are different leaves you know

There are miles and miles between

My roots in what i'm trying to grow

I am not the slave they sold

Nor am i royalty

I've worn them both the finest coat

And rags that barely cover me

But there's mercy in the soil

Mercy in the sun

Learning to forgive

What cannot be undone

And what was meant to harm

Can't harm you in the end

Stepped out on a limb i thought might break

But love said it will only bend it will only bend

I am not my past mistakes

Labeled by some place and time

Nor am i a trophy case

Trying to maintain my shine

I have dreamed a thousand dreams

Watched a grain in famine grow

I am not my family tree

I have branches of my own

But there's mercy in the soil

Mercy in the sun

Learning to forgive

What cannot be undone

And what was meant to harm

Can't harm you in the end

Stepped out on a limb i thought might break

But love said it will only bend

Oh does fate resign us to

Find shelter for our wounds

Beneath the battered roof

Of broken dreams?

Oh but i will choose to stand

In the shadow of your hand

And see what grows

When grace has sown a seed

Oh oh oh

These are different leaves you know

Oh oh oh

But there's mercy in the soil

Mercy in the sun

Learning to forgive

What cannot be undone

And what was meant to harm

Can't harm you in the end

Stepped out on a limb i thought might break

But love said it will only bend it will only bend

It will only bend oh

It will only bend oh
