Lay down softly in our sorrow | |
Lay down sister to die | |
And cover over, my sweet | |
Father Cover over her eyes | |
Your broken body, it cannot weather | |
The years your youth still longs to spend | |
So go down graceful, sleep with the angels | |
And wake up whole again ‘ | |
Cause it was not your time; that's a useless line | |
A fallen world took your life | |
But the God that sometimes can't be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, sister, lay down | |
Slower passing are the hours | |
To tell this tale that takes its time | |
But the finest moment, no man can measure | |
Is to look your | |
Savior in the eyes | |
So take her tender to | |
Your table | |
Take her from this killing floor | |
To taste the water that is forever | |
Let her be thirsty no more | |
It was not her time; that's a useless line | |
A fallen world took her life | |
But the God that sometimes can't be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, sister, lay down | |
And the God that sometimes can't be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, | |
Rita, lay down |
Lay down softly in our sorrow | |
Lay down sister to die | |
And cover over, my sweet | |
Father Cover over her eyes | |
Your broken body, it cannot weather | |
The years your youth still longs to spend | |
So go down graceful, sleep with the angels | |
And wake up whole again ' | |
Cause it was not your time that' s a useless line | |
A fallen world took your life | |
But the God that sometimes can' t be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, sister, lay down | |
Slower passing are the hours | |
To tell this tale that takes its time | |
But the finest moment, no man can measure | |
Is to look your | |
Savior in the eyes | |
So take her tender to | |
Your table | |
Take her from this killing floor | |
To taste the water that is forever | |
Let her be thirsty no more | |
It was not her time that' s a useless line | |
A fallen world took her life | |
But the God that sometimes can' t be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, sister, lay down | |
And the God that sometimes can' t be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, | |
Rita, lay down |
Lay down softly in our sorrow | |
Lay down sister to die | |
And cover over, my sweet | |
Father Cover over her eyes | |
Your broken body, it cannot weather | |
The years your youth still longs to spend | |
So go down graceful, sleep with the angels | |
And wake up whole again ' | |
Cause it was not your time that' s a useless line | |
A fallen world took your life | |
But the God that sometimes can' t be found | |

And the God that sometimes can' t be found | |
Will wrap | |
Himself around you | |
So lay down, | |
Rita, lay down |
