Rest My Bones

Been running from the devil's hounds

Feet barely touch the ground

Yet everywhere I go there's another saying, "Whoa,

Girl's lost, better get yourself found."

I'm walking that narrow road

But Lord, it's a heavy load

When they're painting me in colors, comparing me to others

'Stead of reaping what themselves have sewn

So Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Oh, oh, oh, oh

So I can Rest My Bones

Try to find some peace of mind,

But they sneak up from behind

Some call me a sinner, others say a saint

Picking up their colors and they paint what they paint

I'm tired of what they say

Like they've got some right to weigh

My ups and my downs

It's the same old sound

Like they're Jesus on Judgement Day

So Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Oh, oh, oh, oh

So I can Rest My Bones

Lay me down in the cold, wet dirt

Lift me up, take away my hurt

Bring me home to the pearly gates

Leave behind all the pain and hate

When it's time, He'll know who I've been

All my love and ALL my sin

Until then, I'll have to wait

But I know it's my fate

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Lord, hear me

Angels won't you call me

Home so I can Rest My Bones

Oh, oh, oh, oh

So I can rest

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Let me rest

Oh, oh, oh, oh

So I can Rest My Bones
