Lay It Down
Uuuh uuh uuh
I've been looking till my eyes are tired of looking
Listening till my ears are numb from listening
Praying till my knees are sore from kneeling on the bedroom floor
I know that You know my heart is aching
I'm running out of tears and my will is breaking
I don't think that I can carry the burden of it anymore
All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans,
Are slowly slipping through my folded hands
So I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna learn to trust You now
What else can I do?
Everything I am depends on You
And if the sun don't come back up
I know Your love will be enough
So I'm gonna let it go, I'm gonna let it be,
I'm gonna lay it down
I've been walking through this world like I'm barely living
Buried in the doubt of this hole I've been digging
But You're pulling me out
And I'm finally breathing in the open air
The room may be dark but I'm finally seeing
There's a new ray of hope, and now I'm believing
That the past is past, and the future's beginning to look brighter now
All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans
Are safe and secure when I place them in Your hands.
So I'm gonna lay them down
I'm gonna learn to trust You now
What else can I do?
Everything I am depends on You
And if the sun don't come back up
I know Your love will be enough
I'm gonna let it go
I'm gonna let it be
I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna lay it down.
I've been looking till my eyes are tired of looking
Listening till my ears are numb from listening
Praying till my knees are sore from kneeling on the bedroom floor
I know that You know my heart is aching
I'm running out of tears and my will is breaking
I don't think that I can carry the burden of it anymore
All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans,
Are slowly slipping through my folded hands
So I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna learn to trust You now
What else can I do?
Everything I am depends on You
And if the sun don't come back up
I know Your love will be enough
So I'm gonna let it go, I'm gonna let it be,
I'm gonna lay it down
I've been walking through this world like I'm barely living
Buried in the doubt of this hole I've been digging
But You're pulling me out
And I'm finally breathing in the open air
The room may be dark but I'm finally seeing
There's a new ray of hope, and now I'm believing
That the past is past, and the future's beginning to look brighter now
All of my hopes and my dreams and my best laid plans
Are safe and secure when I place them in Your hands.
So I'm gonna lay them down
I'm gonna learn to trust You now
What else can I do?
Everything I am depends on You
And if the sun don't come back up
I know Your love will be enough
I'm gonna let it go
I'm gonna let it be
I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna lay it down
I'm gonna lay it down.
