Jar Of Clay

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
