๐ Lyrics
I've been feeling down again
I've been counting sheep
I've been taking shots of whiskey at night
To help me sleep
But I'm afraid of the twilight
Though I live my life in the dark
Though I've found out in the darkest places
You see the brightest stars
I used to stare up at a painting
Asleep on my grandma's floor
Something about footprints on a beach
And walking with the Lord
But I've only ever had one set of footprints
Throughout my whole life
I never could make it my own
My story is written in darkness and in light
So I'll sing with the voices of angels
And live this life down on my knees
And stand face to face with the devil
And pray oh God my soul to keep
I used to throw stones at my haters and enemies
Covered in blood and spit and tears; broken down on bended knee
You keep tossing your stones; I've traded my rocks for a better place
I'll be writing with a finger in the dirt, tracing out the word grace
So I sing with the voices of angels
And live this life down on my knees
And stand face to face with the devil
And pray oh God my soul to keep
Oh God my soul to keep
I may seem like the wandering prodigal
A hell-bent, unkempt rose
The fact is I've always been a sheep
Just dressed up in some old wolf's clothes
Breaking under the millstone
Of this other-worldly fight
He says come follow me
My yoke is easy, my burden is light
So I sing with the voices of angels
And live this life down on my knees
And stand face to face with the devil
And pray oh God my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my Soul to take
If I should die before I wake
I'll sleep in my father's arms
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
If I should die before I wake
I'll sleep in my father's arms
I've been counting sheep
I've been taking shots of whiskey at night
To help me sleep
But I'm afraid of the twilight
Though I live my life in the dark
Though I've found out in the darkest places
You see the brightest stars
I used to stare up at a painting
Asleep on my grandma's floor
Something about footprints on a beach
And walking with the Lord
But I've only ever had one set of footprints
Throughout my whole life
I never could make it my own
My story is written in darkness and in light
So I'll sing with the voices of angels
And live this life down on my knees
And stand face to face with the devil
And pray oh God my soul to keep
I used to throw stones at my haters and enemies
Covered in blood and spit and tears; broken down on bended knee
You keep tossing your stones; I've traded my rocks for a better place
I'll be writing with a finger in the dirt, tracing out the word grace
So I sing with the voices of angels
And live this life down on my knees
And stand face to face with the devil
And pray oh God my soul to keep
Oh God my soul to keep
I may seem like the wandering prodigal
A hell-bent, unkempt rose
The fact is I've always been a sheep
Just dressed up in some old wolf's clothes
Breaking under the millstone
Of this other-worldly fight
He says come follow me
My yoke is easy, my burden is light
So I sing with the voices of angels
And live this life down on my knees
And stand face to face with the devil
And pray oh God my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my Soul to take
If I should die before I wake
I'll sleep in my father's arms
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
If I should die before I wake
I'll sleep in my father's arms
