Oh gently lay your
head
Upon my chest
And I will comfort you
Like a mother while you rest
The tide can change so fast,
But I will stay
The same through the past,
The same in future, same today
CHORUS:
I am constant; I am near
I am peace that shatters all your secret fears
I am holy; I am wise
I'm the only one who knows your heart's desires
Your heart's desires
Oh weary, tired
and worn,
Let out your sighs
And drop that heavy load you hold
Cause Mine is light
I know you through
and through;
There's no need to hide
I want to show you love
That is deep and high and wide
CHORUS(2x)
Oh gently lay your
head
Upon my chest
And I will comfort you
Like a mother while you rest
