Righteousness springs forth.
Only God can make it grow.
We may plant and we may water it.
We will reap just what we sow,
But righteousness springs forth.
Only God can make it grow.
We may plant and we may water it.
But only God can make it grow.

Righteousness springs forth.
Only God can make it grow.
By His Spirit, He'll transfigure us,
And He will conquer every foe,
But righteousness springs forth.
Only God can make it grow.
We may plant and we may water it.
But only God can make it grow.
 

Righteousness springs forth.
Only God can make it grow.
As each joint supplies in faithfulness,
So let your Lord Christ Jesus show,
But righteousness springs forth.
Only God can make it grow.
We may plant and we may water it.
But only God can make it grow.
