Jesus Lay Down Beside Me Lyrics


Jesus, lay down beside me
Lay down and rest
Your troubled mind
Jesus, lay down beside me
Lay down your worries
All behind
Well you wept
A million
Tears Lord
For the Truth
Has fallen
On deaf ears Lord
But don't despair
I am prepared
Are you in need?
Jesus lay down beside me
Down at the dark end
Of the day

Jesus lay down beside me
Let all your sorrows
Fall away
When the night
Has grown
So dark
Lord
And the flowers
Of your love
Lord
Sweet Lord
Refuse to see
In a world full of greed
Are you in need?
Are you?
When the night
Has grown
So dark
My Lord
And the flowers
The flowers
Of your love
Lord
Refuse to grow
Lord let me know
(Are you in need?)
Are you in need?
(Are you in need?)
Woo are you in need?
Hey
Lord let me know
Are you in need?
Are you in need?
Are you in need?
Are you in need?
Oh Lord
Don't despair
Jesus
Are you in need?
Are you in need?
Are you in need?
Are you?
Are you?
Are you in need?
