Oh gently lay your head upon my chest   And I will comfort you like a mother while you rest   And the tide can change so fast, but I will stay   The same through past, the same in future, same today      I am constant and I am near   I am peace that shatters all your secret fears   I am holy, I am wise   I'm the only one who knows your heart's desires   Your heart's desires      Oh weary, tired and worn, let out your sighs   And drop that heavy load you hold 'cause mine is light   And I know you through and through, there's no need to hide   I want to show you love that is deep and high and wide      'Cause I am constant and I am near   I am peace that shatters all your secret fears   I am holy, I am wise   I'm the only one who knows your heart's desires   Your heart's desires      I am constant, I am near   I am peace that shatters all your secret fears   I am holy, I am wise   I'm the only one who knows your heart's desires   Your heart's desires      Oh gently lay your head upon my chest   And I will comfort you like a mother while you rest
