As I Lay Me Down
It felt like spring time on this February morning
It felt like spring time on this February morning
In the courtyard birds were singing your praise

I'm still recalling things you said to make me feel
I'm still recalling things you said to make me feel
Alright I carried them with me today now
Alright I carried them with me today now
As I lay me down to sleep
As I lay me down to sleep
This I pray
This I pray
That you will hold me dear
That you will hold me dear
Though I'm far away
Though I'm far away
I'll whisper your name
I'll whisper your name
Into the sky
Into the sky
And I will wake up happy
And I will wake up happy
I wonder why
I wonder why
I feel so high though I am not above the sorrow
I feel so high though I am not above the sorrow
Heavy hearted 'till you call my name
Heavy hearted 'till you call my name
And it sounds like church bells or the whistle of a train
And it sounds like church bells or the whistle of a train
On a summer evening I'll run to meet you barefoot

Barely breathing

As I lay me down to sleep

This I pray
This I pray
That you will hold me dear

Into the sky

And I will wake up happy
And I will wake up happy
It's not too near for me
It's not too near for me
Like a flower I need the rain
Like a flower I need the rain
Though it's not clear to me
Though it's not clear to me
Every season has its change
Every season has its change
And I will see you
And I will see you
When the sun comes out again
When the sun comes out again
As I lay me down to sleep

This I pray
