Father's Lullaby

Hush now, there's no need to be afraid Angels, will be watching round your head While you're asleep Cast off your cares from yesterday And sail upon your Milky Way of hopes and dreams And I will ask the morning star To put a guard around your heart and guide you home To glory in His sunrise Hush now, there's no need to be afraid Darkness, brings an end to every day But there's still light And yes there's fear in darker dreams That I can't hide you from it seems, but still, I know Although you're scared there is a way In deepest dark before the day, His silver beam His hope is here to guide u-us Sometimes, I look in to see you sleep Locks curl, round the edges of your cheek So smooth, so pure And soon enough there'll come a day when Sailing further, far away, you'll find a shore To build a home where children play And sleep in safety as each day draws to a close And sing to bring them comfort Hush now, there's no need to be afraid Angels will be watching round your head
