Lay Down

Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. By still waters I lay down with the lambs In pastures green I made peace with my soul And I cared not for the night While my guiding star shone bright By still waters I lay down I lay down. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul At the roadside I took toll of my times From dirty streets I gave peace for my soul May the merciful be right Are you ready for the night At the roadside I lay down I lay down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. In deep sorrow I took flight with the sun From mountains high I gained strength for my soul I proved stronger than the test When my spirit came to rest In deep sorrow I lay down I lay down. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul. Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down Lay down, I lay me down For my soul.
