Rita

C              F
Lay down softly in our sorrow
C                  G
Lay down sister to die
C             F
And cover over, my sweet Father
C              G
Cover over her eyes
C                F
Your broken body, it cannot weather
C                                   G
The years your youth still longs to spend
C                  F
So go down graceful, sleep with the angels
C              G    C
And wake up whole again

                       Am                     F
‘Cause it was not your time; that's a useless line
         C               G
A fallen world took your life
        C        G/B                Am
But the God that sometimes can't be found
     F            C
Will wrap Himself around you
   G                     C
So lay down, sister, lay down

C             F
Slower passing are the hours
C                                G
To tell this tale that takes its time
C                     F
But the finest moment, no man can measure
C                G             C
Is to look your Savior in the eyes
C                  F
So take her tender to Your table
C                          G
Take her from this killing floor
C                 F
To taste the water that is forever
C           G          C
Let her be thirsty no more

               Am                     F
It was not her time; that's a useless line
         C               G
A fallen world took her life
        C        G/B                Am
But the God that sometimes can't be found
     F            C
Will wrap Himself around you
   G                     Am
So lay down, sister, lay down
        C        G/B                Am
And the God that sometimes can't be found
     F            C
Will wrap Himself around you
   G                   C
So lay down, Rita, lay down
