Appalachian Lullaby

(album: Sleep, Baby, Sleep (Quiet Songs For Quiet Times) - 1994)

Well, I love my baby
Sweet and fair:
You've got the sky in your eyes
The sun in your hair
I rock you to sleep most every night
And sing you this song
While I hold you tight

Sleep, my baby
The angels keep you from harm
And your father above
Cradles you in his love
Safe and warm
Sleep, my baby
Nestled in your mama's arms
Sleep, my baby
The angels keep you from harm

My baby
You'll be sleeping soon
Kissed by the golden stars and moon
I have just one wish for you:
May your every dream come true

Sleep, my baby
The angels keep you from harm
And your father above
Cradles you in his love
Safe and warm
Sleep, my baby
Nestled in your mama's arms
Sleep, my baby
The angels keep you from harm

Sleep, my baby
Nestled in your mama's arms
Sleep, my baby
The angels keep you from harm
