Lyrics Mavis Staples – Jesus Lay Down Beside Me

Jesus lay down beside me
Lay down and rest your troubled mind
Jesus lay down beside me
Lay down your worries all behind

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 light 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)
Are you in need
(Are you in need)
Lord, let me know
