No Place to Lay My Head Lyrics & Tabs by Sandi Patty
No Place to Lay My Head
guitar chords lyrics
A cloud without color cloaks the dawn
As I cling to my earnest resolve
With faltering footsteps and fire in my heart
I fight to stand up when I fall
Though the drone of defeat drums a deafening roar
And mocks each advance that I make
I refuse to retire or relinquish my hold
On the righteousness I undertake
I'm a pilgrim of Heaven
This world's not my own
I may walk by myself but I'm never alone
Chorus:
No place to lay my head
Like my Lord who came before
Though the birds have their nest
No place to lay my head
Like my Lord who came before
Though the birds have their nest
I have nowhere to rest
And there is no place, no place
No place to lay my head
Like My Lord
Though the birds have their nest
I have nowhere to rest
And there is no place to lay my head
The struggle is sweetness and pleasure the pain
As I walk where the Savior has been
Adversity howls down the mountains I climb
With the fury of Golgotha's wind
The rendering of pride is the sword in my side
And surrender the nails in my hands
Down my own way of sorrows I carry my cross
On a journey that's just as He planned
Bearing scars of my master's
My heart's near His own
I may die by myself, but I'm never alone
Repeat Chorus
