"Lay Me Down"

I suppose you could lay me down to die in Illinois 
Bury me beneath the rows of corn 
Or in-between the maple trees I climbed on as a boy 
Where in the Land of Lincoln I was born 

Oh, and I recall 
We rode the combines in the fall 
And there comes a time 
For gathering the harvest after all 

So when you lay me down to die 
I'll miss my boys, I'll miss my girls 
Lay me down and let me say goodbye to this world 
You can lay me anywhere 
But just remember this 
When you lay me down to die 
You lay me down to live 
Well I asked a girl to marry me on a dock out on the lake 
Our babies came to life in Tennessee 
And the music of the mountains is still keeping me awake 
Yeah, but everything that rises falls asleep 

We are not alone 
We are more than flesh and bone 
What is seen will pass away 
What is not is going home 

When you lay me down to die 
I'll miss my boys, I'll miss my girls 
Lay me down and let me say goodbye to this world 
You can lay me anywhere 
But just remember this 
When you lay me down to die 

I'll open up my eyes on the skies I've never known 
In the place where I belong 
And I'll realize His love is just another word for Home 

I believe in the holy shores of uncreated light 
I believe there is power in the blood 
And all of the death that ever was, 
If you set it next to life 
I believe it would barely fill a cup 
'Cause I believe there's power in the blood 

When you lay me down to die 
So long, boys, so long, girls 
Lay me down and let me say goodbye to this world 
You can lay me anywhere 
But just remember this 
When you lay me down to die 
You lay me down to live
