Gather round my dear friends and be loving
Lay me down, lay me down here to rest
Though I’ll stumble, I’ll finish this long race
Now my heart beats inside of God’s chest



CHORUS   On His wing’ed horse we ride
He comes down for me (for me)



How we sorrow below to be parted
Oh the tears that we shed at goodbye
God is close to the ones’ broken hearted
And he carries a son to the sky

CHORUS
