Jar Of Clay Lyrics

Jar Of Clay lyrics

(Michael Reynolds) 



Children do not weep for me

When you hear I’m
dead and gone

In the Savior’s arms I’ll be

Just a like I told you
all along 

When my soul leaves this earth

And you go to put me in the
ground

Dig a place out of the dirt

Say a prayer and lay my body
down



Make my coffin straight and long

With wood that rots and
nails that rust

Oh when my spirit’s gone

Let this jar of clay return
to dust



So do not seal me in a vault

Or buy a tomb to lay me
in

Flesh and bone were meant to rot

And I go back to the earth again




Make my coffin straight and long

With wood that rots and nails
that rust

Oh when my spirit’s gone

Let this jar of clay return to
dust



Oh make my coffin straight and long

With wood that rots and
nails that rust

Oh when my spirit’s gone

Let this jar of clay return
to dust

Let this jar of clay return to dust

Let this jar of clay return
to dust
