Lay Down
Where
Where is the Kingdom I ask and pray
The one where You Lord reside
The one I long for everyday
Why can’t I find it why does it hide
Where are You Who own it Who manage
The Palace I cannot view
The world I live seems so savage
Why can’t I come live with You
Where all that live in Your Grand Palace
The ones I seem to want to fancy
The place where I will seem to know every face
Why is this all hidden from me
Where are You Lord Jesus
Why you are in the oceans the seas the mountains I see
Why you are in the endless sky the sun the clouds and in us
Why did you die rise and leave so quickly
Where I go now depends only on me
The choice is mine to desire
The gifts You’ve given faith hope and trust help me greatly
Why I choose the Place without endless fire
Amen
