Lay It Down

I held the day

Above the night for you, love

To see you lift your eyes up

To see you smile again

Your heavy heart

Looks for a sanctuary

From all the hurt you carry

Into another day

The sun is rising

My love, lay it down

You’re born to shine

Along the way of heaven

To find you’ve been forgiven

To know it works that way

So they were right

And pride is hard to let go

Would you believe I said so

And put it on the line

The sun is rising

Your confession won’t surprise me

Love, lay it down

My love, lay it down

Oh let it all

Come down on my love

Just as sure as the sun is rising

Your confession won’t surprise me

Lay it down on my love

Lay it down

Love hear the truth

I have joy to give you

I’ll make everything new

Trust me so let it go

I have far better plans

Than this moment demands

I'll take care of you one of my own

My own
