lyrics

Lay down my dear brothers, lay down and take your rest
And won't you lay your head upon your saviors breast
I love you, oh but Jesus loves you best
And we bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight

Lay down my dear brothers, lay down and take your rest
And won't you lay your head upon your saviors breast
I love you, oh but Jesus loves you best
And we bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight

Tell "A" for the ark, that wonderful boat (goodnight)
Tell "B" for the beast at the ending of the wood (goodnight)
You know he ate all the children that wouldn't be good (goodnight)
Oh I remember well, I remember right well (goodnight)
Walking in Jerusalem just like John (goodnight)
Walking in the valley through the shadow of death (goodnight)

Lay down my dear brothers, lay down and take your rest
And won't you lay your head upon your saviors breast
I love you, oh but Jesus loves you best
And we bid you goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
