Lyrics
Jesus, Sleep for Me
© 2006 Drake’s Takes Music
Sleep, sweet Jesus, sleep for me.
The sun’s gone out in Galilee.
The stars are bright.
It’s a lonely night.
Sleep, sweet Jesus, sleep for me.
Sleep, sweet Jesus, sleep for me.
I’m wide awake with misery.
I can’t recall
How a tear should fall.
Sleep, sweet Jesus, sleep for me.
I walked the way of fools,
Gone down a crooked path.
I traded gold for jewels,
A heap of worthless glass.
And when all hope was gone,
You beckoned with your light.
But darkness hides the dawn.
And I can’t sleep tonight.
Sleep, sweet Jesus, sleep for me.
Someday we’ll meet in ecstasy.
Until that time,
My world is crying.
Sleep, sweet Jesus, sleep for me.
