Now I Lay Me Down to Rest
April 2, 2011
Now I lay me down to rest
My hearts been to the ultimate test
With this world I’ve seen the light
When You shone it on me so bright
I realized it’s my time to make a choice
To show the strength in my voice
When the rope sits around my neck
And under my feet the release of the deck
The pressure of the crunchy grains
And through my body shocks of pains
In my mind I know it’s right
All this goes through my mind despite
All these occurrences blow my mind
Suddenly my eyes go blind
Now I lay me down to rest
My heart has followed Your quest!
