Letra de Let Me Die (in loving arms)

Now when I die, as I surely will
May the night be dark, and hold me still
And those tired eyes they watch with care
May the sounds of music fill the air
And oh I've travelled and oh I've roamed
May all my footsteps, lead to home
Lay me low, my weary head
And oh let me die in my own bed
Lord let me die in my own bed
Well sure as twilight steals the sun
May my body live and come undone
And spare me of the slow decay
To feel my thoughts waste away
Oh won't you take me, just as I am
Not as a body, but as a man
I ask for my extra time
But lord let me die in my own mind
Lord let me die in my own mind
Oh let me die, let me die, let me die
Lord let me die in my own mind
When Mama's eye are full of tears
Please hold her close and ease her fears
And as I watch from high above
Please let her know that she was loved
And as I hear that mortal call
Just let me hold you until I cannot anymore
And in this day of perfect calm
Lord let me die in loving arms
Lord let me die in loving arms
Lord let me die in loving arms
