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
