Carry Me Down lyrics

I found the following on another website...

This is what Ryan Clark told bands on fire what it meant:

"This song, although seemingly very sad and depressing, is in actuality a love letter to my friends and family. It is essentially something that I would want them all to know if I were to die. I ask my true friends to carry my casket down the aisle, and as they lay me into the ground, not to mourn for my soul, but rather rejoice for my salvation.

Death can be viewed as a very negative thing, but for Christians, it is where we find our true hope. Death is never something I would take lightly or toy with, but to address it I think can be very revealing. If you never spoke of the reality of death, you would be ignoring such an important part of life. This song asks my friends and family to “save sorrow for the souls in doubt,” for they know that my soul is safe.

"Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death." - Isaiah 57:2"

i agree with dadampe and directorsden because this song says be courages get thru tragedy

Be courageous when your loved ones die.
Save your grief for the ones who are in doubt of the lord.

This song is about how there is no need to fear or be depressed when God is on your side.
