Sleep my child and peace attend thee All through the night Guardian angels God will send thee All through the night Soft the drowsy hours are creeping Hill and vale in slumber sleeping I my loving vigil keeping All through the night Love, to thee my thoughts are turning All through the night All for thee my heart is yearning All through the night Though sad fate our lives may sever Parting will not last forever There's a hope that leaves me never All through the night Though I all may means too lonely All through the night But your heart shall pray so lonely All through the night Last and dream, last is over Near the person still my loving All through the night Sleep my love and peace attend thee All through the night Guardian angels God will send thee All through the night Soft the drowsy hours are creeping Hill and vale in slumber sleeping I my loving vigil keeping All through the night
