Jonathan Ogden's song 'Plant Me Like a Tree' draws from Psalm 1, expressing a deep longing to be rooted in God's presence and Word. The lyrics speak of finding delight in the Lord and describe Scripture as water and life for the soul. The central image is being planted by streams of living water, symbolizing spiritual nourishment and stability. The song emphasizes meditating on God's Word day and night, reflecting a theme of devotion and dependence on God for strength and growth.
I have found my soul's delight
In You Lord, In You Lord
I have found my soul's delight
In Your eyes, In Your eyes
Your word is water to my soul
Your word is life to me
Plant me like a tree, by the streams of living water
Plant me like a tree, by the streams, by the streams
Day and night
I will meditate on Your word
