Lay me down into the ground
I once was lost but never found
I have forgotten my own sound
And in the void of love
I dug myself this hole
And I'm here waiting for a stranger
Oh I've played the wayfaring stranger
Long enough to have tasted all danger
Yet Your grace refuses to waver
As you take my burdens on Thee
Lay me down into the waves
Let your love wash pain away
Heal this sickness in my veins
There is a light which causes death to die
It's a mystery full of wonder
Oh I've played the wayfaring stranger
Long enough to have tasted all danger
Yet Your grace refuses to waver
As you take my burdens on Thee
I pray lay me down
That you might raise me up
