Lay Down Your Kingdom

The truest heart will not be tempted

With bright silver or shining gold

For all your wealth she'd not speak falsely

And all your power cannot hold

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Her face is fair to those who know her

The rest are blind, they cannot see

And in her eyes you see forever

Endless joy and misery

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Some men gamble for their pleasure

Some men gamble for their greed

I will gamble for her favor

I will gamble out of need

Lay down my kingdom lay down

Lay down my kingdom lay down

Here's to our Lady of Good Fortune

Deliver me from an evil hand

Here's to the one who plays against me

Be he spirit or be he man

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Lay down your kingdom lay down

Lay down your kingdom lay down
