The sentry's kids have cooled off in my shade and climbed my limbs
I've been a home to bluebirds, I protect them from the wind
And if you want the world to see your heart, carve it into me
But in the hands of a carpenter, I am so much more
I frame the memories on your wall, I swing on your front porch
And there's that table built with love, I bring together families
So don't tell me you're too small to do amazing things
But I'm a home to bluebirds, I protect them from the wind

Cause I was just a seed
Well I sang the chords to Ring of Fire, when Johnny strummed my strings
Babe Ruth held me in his hands, and he took those mighty swings
And how those Wright brothers got me in the air, is anybody's guess
I sailed Columbus, over Washington
Out uncharted seas
And who'd have thought they'd nickname Andrew Jackson after me
And on wagon wheels, I carried pioneers across the West
So don't tell me you're too small to do amazing things
Cause I was just a seed
Well I'm proud to hold you as you rock your little ones to sleep
And to be that cross around your neck to show what you believe
They drape a flag upon me when a soldier's laid to rest
So you can cut me down, take my life, this way I'm at my best
guitar solo
So don't tell me you're too small to do amazing things
A little grain of faith is all you need
And if I've helped you see all you can be
That I was just a seed
I'm just a seed
I'm just a seed
