I lay awake at night, but that's alright;
I know my Jesus will fix it, after while.
Trouble in my way, I have to cry sometimes.
Trouble in my way, I have to cry sometimes.
I lay awake at night, but that's alright;
I know my Jesus will fix it, after while.
Stepped, stepped in the furnace a long time ago;
Shadrech, Meshach and Abendigo.
No, they were not worried, oh, this I know;
They knew that Jesus will fix it after while.
Trouble in my way, I have to cry sometimes.
Trouble in my way, I have to cry sometimes.
I lay awake at night, but that's alright;
Jesus will fix it after while.
Because he fixed for my mother
(I know my Jesus will fix it)
Because he fixed for my mother
(I know my Jesus will fix it)
Jesus, He will fix it.
Gonna be alright.
It's gonna be alright in the morning,
He's gonna make a way.
