| Lay down my dear brother, lay down and take your rest,
|
| Wont you lay your head upon your saviors chest,
|
| I love you all, but jesus loves you the best
|
| And we bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight.
|
| I would never ride, well, I would never ride (goodnight, goodnight)
|
| But his rod and his staff, they comfort me (goodnight, goodnight)
|
| Tell a for the ark, that wonderful boat (goodnight, goodnight)
|
| Tell b for the beast at the ending of the wood (goodnight, goodnight)
|
| You know it ate all the children when they wouldnt be good,
|
| Walking in jerusalem just like john (goodnight, goodnight)
|
| I go walking in the valley of the shadow of death,
|
| And we bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight. |
