Lyrics

Lift Me Gently

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

If this river be my death bed,

Made by the madness of this man,

And my words to him be thank you,

Would the heavens understand?

All my life I’ve been a good girl,

Every night I’ve said my prayers

And I hope that Jesus heard me

Through all my tears.

Hears my angels come to take me.

They are haloed in the light,

But I wish they’d touch me softly,

They’re aggressive and they’re uptight.

Lift me gently

Or leave me where I am.

I thought you’d be the hand of God.

But you’re just the same as Him.

Lift me gently.

Please not with human touch.

Christ knows I’ve had my share alive.

And it never felt like love

So I’m face down in this river

And my body’s cold and useless

And the angels pull at my soul

But it's anxious and it's nervous

And they tell me,

“You’re not the only one who waits for their delivery,

And you’re world’s too full of lonely souls.

And we’re rushed off our feet”,

But I say, please..

Lift me gently.

Or leave me where I am.

I thought you’d be the hand of God.

But you’re just the same as Him.

Lift me gently.

Please not with human touch.

Christ knows I’ve had my share alive

And it never felt like love

Lift me gently

Lift me gently
