'I Shall Not Be Moved' lyrics
Refrain: I shall not be, I shall not be moved. I shall not be, I shall not be moved; like a tree planted by the water, I shall not be moved.
When my cross is heavy, I shall not be moved, when my cross is heavy, I shall not be moved; like a tree planted by the water, I shall not be moved. [Refrain]
The church of God is marching, I shall not be moved, the church of God is marching, I shall not be moved; like a tree planted by the water, I shall not be moved. [Refrain]
Jesus is our captain, I shall not be moved, Jesus is our captain, I shall not be moved; like a tree planted by the water, I shall not be moved. [Refrain]
Fighting sin and Satan, I shall not be moved, Fighting sin and Satan, I shall not be moved; like a tree planted by the water, I shall not be moved. [Refrain]
