The time has come And as I reach up to the sky The love will never die

At last it's here The darkest sky begins to clear The final hour draws near

But the voices are calling me Erasing the pain and the fear

So lay me down Lay me to rest It's over now 'cause I know It's the beginning of the end

And so we'll rise By the grace of God alone His words are carved in stone

I'm never gone I'll always be within your heart Waiting's the worst part Now the voices are calling me Soothing me and easing the pain and the fear

So lay me down Lay me to rest It's over now 'cause I know It's the beginning of the end

And I see my life pass quickly by I am watching All these years we thought we were so wise They mean nothing

Walk alone into the dying mist come alive for ever See the things we've never seen before Hand in hand together

They galling rays are lighting up the open door We've all been waiting for All the voices are calling me Showing the path that is clear

So lay me down Lay me to rest It's over now 'cause I know It's the beginning

So lay me down Lay me to rest It's over now 'cause I know It's the beginning of the end
