I lay me down (4x)
A living sacrifice to you,
a living sacrifice to you
I lay it down, (e) (4x)
A pleasing sacrifice to you,
a pleasing sacrifice to you
I lift you up, (e) (4x)
And freedom will be the song of my heart
And freedom will be the song of my heart
I lay me down, (e) (4x)
And freedom is now the song of my heart (8x)
At the foot of the cross I lay my life down
At the foot of the cross I lay down my crown
There is freedom there O' Lord I lay my life down
Teach me Lord to deny myself
To take up your cross to deny myself
To walk with you to follow you to honor you
For the rest of my days
And I...and I lay my life down (whisper)
And I...and I lay my life down
