Take Me Down
by Michael Omartian

Album: White Horse

Take me down to the crystalline water.
Take me down and put me under.
Where darkness crashes round like August thunder.
Take me down and put me under.
He said there's life in what you do.
And that's all I ask of you.

So put me under.
Take me down to the brooks of Kanah.
Life waits there like a quiet neighbor.
Seems like yesterday when I was crying,
Take me down, see me dying.
He said there's life in what you do,
And that's all I ask of you.
See me dying.

Round and round in that cistern altar,
Time goes down in the flowing water.
The past is washed away like weeping ashes.
So lift your hands up as it passes.
He said there's life in what you do,
And that's all I ask of you,
Lift your hands up, as it passes.

I'm not free falling snow on the ground.
I can turn back or put on a crown,
So take me down.
