Study Makes You Strong

Since we could crawl, our family studied it all

Even though small

We understood what we were learning

Father would read to me before I would sleep

Now I am taller, I still keep up with that routine

And when I’m by myself

I take that book down off the shelf

I remember what the scripture

Said that I would need so I could stand firm

Study makes you strong

Just like a tree that’s planted by a river stream

Study makes you strong

Your leaves just won’t dry out

And everything succeeds

Study makes you strong

Just like a tree that’s

Planted its roots down deep

Study makes you strong

You’ll grow so big and tall

There’s nothing you won’t see

What will I say when

A big chance comes my way?

What will my classmates say

If I don’t follow with them?

All of the information’s here on display

I’m not afraid, because I learned this as an infant

Cause when I’m by myself

I take that book down off the shelf

I remember what the scripture

Said that I would need so I could stand firm

Study makes you strong

Just like a tree that’s

Planted by a river stream

Study makes you strong

Your leaves just won’t dry out

And everything succeeds

Study makes you strong

Just like a tree that’s

Planted its roots down deep

Study makes you strong

You’ll grow so big and tall

There’s nothing you won’t see

Every word that’s helping me

Could contain the very key

To offer just the help and

Encouragement somebody needs

Study makes you strong

Study makes you strong

Study makes you strong

Study makes you strong

Study makes you strong

Just like a tree that’s planted by a river stream

Study makes you strong

Your leaves just won’t dry out

And everything succeeds

Study makes you strong

Just like a tree that’s

Planted its roots down deep

Study makes you strong

You’ll grow so big and tall

There’s nothing you won’t see
