Soul to Keep Lyrics

She is wild and free, and she's gonna live forever

To the earth you cannot tether, a bird that flies

She is forever young, every day feels like a year

And there's not a drop of fear, no holding back

And just like Mama taught, every single night

With palms pressed hard, and eyes shut tight

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep

Should I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take

She's in love with a boy, and they say he'll clip her wings

Ain't got a dime but Lord he sings, seems she's leaving home

Then two was not enough, so the Lord gave them a girl

Want to give her the whole world, faith, hope and love

And just like Mama taught, every single night

With palms pressed hard, and eyes shut tight

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep

Should I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep

Should I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep

Should I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take

I pray the Lord my soul to take
