Jesus Lay Down Beside Me Songtext
von Mavis Staples

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, oh

Lord, let me know
(Are You in need?)
Are You in need?
(Are You in need?)
Woah, are You in need?
Hey
Lord let me know

Are You in need? (Are You in need?)
(Oh-woah) are You in need? (Are You in need?)
Are You in need?
Are You in need?
Oh Lord (Are You in need?)
Don't despair (Are You in need? Are You in need?)
Jesus

Are You in need?
Are You in need?
Are You in need?
Are You in need?
Are you? Are you? Are You in need?
