Lay It Down

Tommy's haunted by the pressure to become
The first family member to wear a cap and gown
Time it ticks and the sweat it drips down
He's longing for the tassel dangling from his golden crown

Lay it down
Let it go right now
Misery loves company with those who cannot set it down
Throw your cares on Him
He'll show you how
Now is not the time to be missing out

She dreams of white picket fences
Has thoughts of marrying him
She believes is her existence
Somebody should tell him
And now you'll find her on her knees
As Jesus takes her lonely heart and holds it tenderly

Lay it down
Let it go right now
Misery loves company with those who cannot set it down
Throw your cares on Him
He'll show you how
Now is not the time to be missing out

Life's melodies can be accompanied by doubt
They start happy then comes the minor key
That brings us down

Lay it down
Let it go right now
Misery loves company with those who cannot set it down
Throw your cares on Him
He'll show you how
Now is not the time to be missing out

But in times of endless tragedy
He's been known to compose His best symphonies

Lay it down
Let it go right now
Misery loves company with those who cannot set it down
Throw your cares on Him
He'll show you how
Now is not the time to be missing out
