[00:00.00]Lift Me Gently - Charlie Winston
[00:09.07]If this river be my death bed
[00:13.63]Made by the madness of this man
[00:18.32]And my words to him be thank you
[00:23.51]Would the heavens understand
[00:26.88]All my life I've been a good girl
[00:31.38]Every night I've said my prayers
[00:35.95]And I hope that Jesus heard me
[00:41.20]Through all my tears
[00:46.32]Hears my angels come to take me
[00:50.07]They are haloed in the light
[00:55.88]But I wish they'd touch me softly
[01:00.13]They're aggressive and they're uptight
[01:06.51]Lift me gently
[01:10.88]Or leave me where I am
[01:16.13]I thought you'd be the hand of God
[01:20.69]But you're just the same as Him
[01:24.38]Lift me gently
[01:29.55]Please not with human touch
[01:33.18]Christ knows I've had my share alive
[01:37.87]And it never felt like love
[01:48.30]So I'm face down in this river
[01:52.74]And my body's cold and useless
[01:56.99]And the angels pull at my soul
[02:01.49]But it's anxious and it's nervous
[02:05.43]And they tell me
[02:06.93]“You're not the only one who waits for their delivery
[02:15.62]And you're world's too full of lonely souls
[02:20.11]And we're rushed off our feet”
[02:25.16]But I say please
[02:30.73]Lift me gently
[02:35.02]Or leave me where I am
[02:39.26]I thought you'd be the hand of God
[02:44.01]But you're just the same as Him
[02:48.14]Lift me gently
[02:52.39]Please not with human touch
[02:56.95]Christ knows I've had my share alive
[03:01.27]And it never felt like love
[03:18.14]Lift me gently
[03:21.14]Lift me gently
