I lay down my head
Almost asleep
Tears in my eyes

Why should I weep
I know there's more
Where I am going now

Angels surround me and lead me back home

So if I should die before I wake

I pray dear God my soul he'll take
So don't you cry for my sake
When I am gone

Cause I have just begun to live my life
It's just my faith
Don't ask me why

Cause we're all just here for a time
And then we're gone
Looks like I'm moving on


As I close my eyes
That's when I see

It's not what you know
It's what you believe
And as the page turns

And this world gets the best of me
I hold to my faith
And let hope lead her way


So if I should die before I wake
I pray dear God my soul he'll take

So don't you cry upon my sake
When I am gone
Cause I have just begun to live

I will bravely pay the price
No counting tears or casting doubt
I'm going home


Cause I have just begun to see the signs
I see the light

In the corners of my mind
Parental tears I hear them crying
As the moment passes by

A beeping sound is slowing down
I feel the waves are breaking now
I call to shore and drift away


So if I should die before I wake
I pray dear God my soul he'll take

So don't you cry for my sake
When I am gone
Cause I have just begun to live my life

It's just my faith
Don't ask me why
Cause we're all just here for a time

And then we're gone
Cause I have just begun
I have just begun

I have just begun
I have just begun to live
