Restless Bones

Look at these souls
All these restless bones 
Crying out too me 
While I lay asleep
Heaven calls out to me
Look at these bones 
Their can no longer sleep
Mercy, how can I not weep 
All these lost souls
Laying at your feet
Heaven knows, I can no longer sleep
All these bones buried beneath my feet
Mercy, I am terrified 
I am hurt and weak
In here I can't catch any sleep
These souls make my heart weak
I can no longer fall asleep
Knowing these bones will no longer sleep
Heaven my heart will forever weep
For these souls who wonder the world
Without any sleep.
