Justin Rutledge - Lay Me Down Sweet Jesus Lyrics
Oh, lay me down, sweet Jesus, by the trembling skylines,by the fox's vineyard, by the snowman's eyesOh, lay me down by the black boys, lay me down by the blue boysand lay me down in the sweetness of my father's armsOh, lay me down, sweet Jesus, by the fever of your cold feet,where the soil goes hungry, where the pretty worms hideOh, lay me down by the highways, by the messianic roadmapsand lay me down in the sweetness of my father's armsOh, lay me down, sweet Jesus, by the muddy river Jordan,by the teeth of pianos, by the punk rock bandsOh, lay me down by the coffins of the paperboy's parentsand lay me down in the sweetness of my father's armsOh, lay me down, sweet Jesus, in the holy war zones,by Jerusalem's cancer, by my baby's bloodOh, lay me down in the pastures, where your crosses gathersand lay me down in the sweetness of my father's arms
