LYRICS:
Now the clock is standing still
The moment closes down to you
And what you feel
All the tremblings of your heart
All the dreams you whisper to the stars
All that you're not
All that you are
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come lay it down
Pictures colored with your pain
Images of silent shame
All the things you thought you had to hide
Broken memories you've locked inside
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come lay it down
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come to the Kingdom
All your should have
Could have, might have been's
You know you wanna just start again
Moving past the jagged edge
Stop living on the lonely lane
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come lay it down
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come to the Kingdom
So kneel by the healing stream
And let His love keep flowing, flowing
Let it wash you clean
Let it wash you clean
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come lay it down
Lay it down
Lay it down
Come to the Kingdom
