Text: Jennifer Knapp. Lay It Down. You Answer Me.
All the things I want to say
All at once they wash away
As You walk by out of mind
My thoughts fly away
And all the things I long to hear
Suddenly they reappear
You say in that hour Your holy power
Will wipe away my fears
I, I can hear You cry out loud
When You answer me, when You answer me
And I, once again I am revived
When You answer me, You answer
When You answer me, You answer me with love, love
To know You are, I am
Confidence of lion lying with the lamb
In greener fields, oh, with all my zeal
Is hard to comprehend
I, I can hear You cry out loud
When You answer me, when You answer me
And I, once again I am revived
When You answer me, You answer
When You answer me, You answer me
With love so understanding
I can hardly catch my breath
Seeing this I wonder how
You have any love left
Me not alone when I did not believe
Through the darkness, through the darkness
You answer me, yeah
And I, I can hear You cry out loud
When You answer me, oh, when You answer me
And I, once again I am revived
When You answer me, You answer
When You answer me, You answer me with love
All at once they wash away
As You walk by out of mind
My thoughts fly away
And all the things I long to hear
Suddenly they reappear
You say in that hour Your holy power
Will wipe away my fears
I, I can hear You cry out loud
When You answer me, when You answer me
And I, once again I am revived
When You answer me, You answer
When You answer me, You answer me with love, love
To know You are, I am
Confidence of lion lying with the lamb
In greener fields, oh, with all my zeal
Is hard to comprehend
I, I can hear You cry out loud
When You answer me, when You answer me
And I, once again I am revived
When You answer me, You answer
When You answer me, You answer me
With love so understanding
I can hardly catch my breath
Seeing this I wonder how
You have any love left
Me not alone when I did not believe
Through the darkness, through the darkness
You answer me, yeah
And I, I can hear You cry out loud
When You answer me, oh, when You answer me
And I, once again I am revived
When You answer me, You answer
When You answer me, You answer me with love
