I say, i finally found the truth When i opened up the book God's written You say, i'm just another fool Who believes a man-made fairytale I know, the God i serve is true Cause He doesn't lay there six feet under Before you get too far away Chorus: Lay down, lay down, lay down your gods Open your eyes Then put your life on the line Lay down, lay down, lay down your gods Don't waste your time You've got to lay down your gods Tell me, oh when your life is through Will the gods you serve be there to save you I know That Jesus is reality Not some false religious dream Don't let them steal your soul away Repeat chorus Lay down, lay down, lay down your gods Follow the one The way, the truth and the life Lay down, lay down, lay down your gods Don't live a lie You've got to lay down your gods
