Lay Me Down - Andrew Peterson[00:00:00]
I suppose you could[00:00:24]
Lay me down to die in Illinois[00:00:25]
Bury me beneath the rows of corn[00:00:29]
Or in-between the maple trees[00:00:34]
I climbed on as a boy[00:00:36]
Where in the Land of Lincoln I was born[00:00:39]
Oh and I recall[00:00:43]
We rode the combines in the fall[00:00:45]
And there comes a time[00:00:48]
For gathering the harvest after all[00:00:49]
When you lay me down to die[00:00:56]
I'll miss my boys I'll miss my girls[00:00:59]
Lay me down and let me[00:01:04]
Say goodbye to this world[00:01:05]
You can lay me anywhere[00:01:08]
But just remember this[00:01:11]
When you lay me down to die[00:01:13]
You lay me down to live[00:01:16]
Well I asked a girl to marry me[00:01:28]
On a dock out on the lake[00:01:30]
Our babies came to life in Tennessee[00:01:33]
And the music of the mountains[00:01:38]
Is still keeping me awake[00:01:40]
Yeah but everything that rises falls asleep[00:01:43]
We are not alone[00:01:48]
We are more than flesh and bone[00:01:49]
What is seen will pass away[00:01:52]
What is not is going home[00:01:55]
When you lay me down to die[00:01:57]
I'll miss my boys I'll miss my girls[00:02:01]
Lay me down and let me[00:02:06]
Say goodbye to this world[00:02:07]
You can lay me anywhere[00:02:10]
But just remember this[00:02:13]
When you lay me down to die[00:02:15]
I'll open up my eyes on the skies[00:02:18]
I've never known[00:02:22]
In the place where I belong[00:02:23]
And I'll realize His love is[00:02:26]
Just another word for Home[00:02:28]
I believe in the holy shores of uncreated light[00:02:35]
I believe there is power in the blood[00:02:40]
And all of the death that ever was [00:02:46]
If you set it next to life[00:02:48]
I believe it would barely fill a cup[00:02:51]
'Cause I believe there's power in the blood[00:02:56]
When you lay me down to die[00:02:59]
So long boys so long girls[00:03:03]
Lay me down and let me[00:03:07]
Say goodbye to this world[00:03:09]
You can lay me anywhere[00:03:12]
But just remember this[00:03:15]
When you lay me down to die[00:03:17]
You lay me down to live[00:03:21]
You lay me down to live[00:03:26]
You lay me down[00:03:38]
You lay me down[00:03:41]
You lay me down to live[00:03:46]
