Lyrics
Little one, little one
rest your weary head
pillowed on, pillowed on
your cozy bed
mother rocks, mother rocks
you to sleep
cradled with
your breath so deep
little one, little one
when your father hears you cry
he'll hold you tight, hold you tight
and hum a lullaby
(Humming)
little one little one
now fold your hands and pray
thank you God thank you God
for keeping me this day
And if I die
before I wake
I pray the lord
My soul to take
little one little one
before you outgrow your bed
let your dreams let your dreams
fill your tiny head
let the stars at night
guide you safley
by there light
tonight
let the starlight
guide you safe tonight
