Lay my head upon my pillow
Trying hard to sleep
Lying in a bed of comfort
I began to weep
How can I just dream my dreams
And simply drift along
When I know by the time I wake
Thousands will be gone
They'll be gone forever, perishing alone
Gone forever, never having known
Of One who loved them with a love
They never knew in life
So I cry in the darkness
'Cause they never saw the Light
Lord, how it must break Your heart
To see them slip away
Perishing in countless numbers
Every passing day
Half the world has never yet
Even heard Your name
And those of us who know You well
We're the ones to blame
Gone forever, perishing alone
Gone forever, never having known
Of One who loved them with a love
They never knew in life
So I cry in the darkness
'Cause they never saw the Light
Trying hard to sleep
Lying in a bed of comfort
I began to weep
How can I just dream my dreams
And simply drift along
When I know by the time I wake
Thousands will be gone
They'll be gone forever, perishing alone
Gone forever, never having known
Of One who loved them with a love
They never knew in life
So I cry in the darkness
'Cause they never saw the Light
Lord, how it must break Your heart
To see them slip away
Perishing in countless numbers
Every passing day
Half the world has never yet
Even heard Your name
And those of us who know You well
We're the ones to blame
Gone forever, perishing alone
Gone forever, never having known
Of One who loved them with a love
They never knew in life
So I cry in the darkness
'Cause they never saw the Light
