11. I Lay Me Down

Sovereign
by Michael W. Smith



 

 

I have found here / Love and mercy / From an infinite supply / I have found here / Living water / From a well that won’t run dry
AT YOUR FEET I / I BOW IN WONDER / AT YOUR FEET / I PLACE MY CROWNS / LET SURRENDER BE THE ONLY SOUND / AT YOUR FEET / I LAY ME DOWN
Fear and failure / Pride and hatred / You see all I’ve tried to hide / But sweet mercy / Has embraced me / Wrath has turned to life divine // Into my emptiness / You speak life and give me breath / I lay me down // Undone by holiness / Take my all and nothing less / I lay me down

Behind the Song:
This song is one of my favorites on the album – written with Michael Farren and Seth Mosely. The chorus says, “At your feet I bow and wonder. At your feet I lay my crown. Let surrender be the only sound. At your feet I lay me down.” If I had to sing one song from the album, this would be the one. The lyrics just say it all! - Michael W. Smith
