No Place to Lay my Head(1)

Foxes have holes, birds of the air have nests,but the son of man has no place to lay His head.

No place to lay my head,
no place where I can rest awhile.
This weary pilgrim needs a place to call home.
A refuge from the storm.
The birds have their nest,
where they can rest.
Is there a place where I can go?
Please tell me, tell me now.
What will I do now?
With no place to lay my head.
Seems like so many years,
I have lived my life in constant fear.
Wanting to run away,
to escape the noise running through my head.
Where do I run?
Where do I hide?
From all this hurt inside.
The foxes have holes and the birds have their nest.
But where can I go to find peace and rest?
Where can I find some peace of mind?
Is there someone I can run to,
Is there someone I can tell
all my fears to?
And now what runs through my mind,
and my hearts longing to find
someone I can turn to.
So I will keep searching to find.
The foxes have holes, and the birds have their nest,
I just need a place I can call home.
