As Raízes

E                                                                                            E/D#                            C#m  
Encontrei-me com um velho fazendeiro 
                             E                                      E/D#                 A  
O seu rosto enrugado pelo sol
                                     E                                      E/D#                                            C#m  
Oitenta anos tem, chama-se tio Sampaio,
                                     F#m                                                                                 B  
Não tem medo de nenhum temporal.
                                E                                              E/D#                                         C#m  
Perguntei qual era o seu grande segredo,
                                        E                                      E/D#                      A  
De uma longa vida cheia de vigor,
                                  E                                 E/D#                                 C#m  
De uma fé tão radiante que a todos atraía,
                     C#m  
As raízes...
        E                                                         D                                              A  
Cuide bem das coisas principais,
                        E                                                    E/D#                      C#m  
Arraigado sempre firme na Palavra do Senhor
                     F#m  F#m/E    B  
Nada vai    te abalar.
                     C#m  
As raízes...
                                     E                                    E/D#                      C#m  
Tio Sampaio me falou da sua vida
                                                        E                                         E/D#                                    A  
Que quando jovem entregou-se ao Senhor,
                          E                                      E/D#                      C#m  
Dedicou-se ao estudo da Palavra,
                     F#m                              F#m/E                            B  
Cada dia foi crescendo seu amor.
                                E                                 E/D#                                 C#m  
Sua esposa já morreu há oito anos,
                        E                                                                                                 A  
Ele sabe que seus dias vão findar.
                                  E                                                         E/D#                                    C#m  
Não importam as circumstâncias ou o vento que soprar 
                  F#m         F#m/E         B                         C#m  
As raízes vão segurar  As raízes...
