Lay My Life Down Lyrics by Graci Phillips

Catastrophe

2011

[Verse 1:]
Well, I’m standing at the crossroads
And I figure only God knows
If I’ll choose the one that leads to the top
But whatever way that I go
At least I know that I know
I am trying and I will never stop
[Pre-Chorus:]
Trying to find my place
Here within this human race
[Chorus:]
Well, more lonesome times I have not found
Am I to climb this mountain?
Am I to reach the higher ground?
I will not let the masses slow me down
Oh there waits a crown
But I must lay my life down
For the one that needs a healing
Who’s falling down again
For the one that life sent reeling
Reaping pain for all their sins
For the one who’s been abandoned
Oh, I will be a friend
But I must lay my life down
[Verse 2:]
Well at times I’ve been a stranger
To the underlying danger
Of a life lived for me, myself, and I
And of all the things I’ve worked for
I’ve found giving love means much more
Than to gain the world and lose my very soul
That is not my goal
As I live down here below
[Chorus:]
Well, more lonesome times I have not found
Am I to climb this mountain?
Am I to reach the higher ground?
I will not let my past slow me down
Oh, there waits a crown
But I must lay my life down
For the one that needs a healing
Who’s falling down again
For the one that life sent reeling
Reaping pain for all their sins
For the one who’s been abandoned
Oh, I will be a friend
I will lay my life down
I will lay my life down
I will lay my life down
