SLEEP BABY SLEEP song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

sleep baby sleep
my little darling baby
sleep baby sleep
I shall sing a lullaby

the sky is turning red
just rest your head
church bells are ringing
and I am softly singing

sleep baby sleep
and then when you awake to what day brings
we'll laugh and we will play
on this first day of spring

sleep baby sleep
my little darling child
sleep baby sleep
where the wild things run wild
sleep baby sleep
and I'll watch over you
sleep baby sleep
until the sky turns blue
again

I love you with each beat of heart
each day through the ending and the starting
summer spring and fall and winter over all

and when I hear your voice
my soul begins rejoicing
to see you smile
my special child
all sorrow will destroy

the warming rain
will melt the ice
till only life remains

today we'll see
what we became to be

tomorrow is so far away
sleep baby sleep

and trouble is a foreign land
that you might never understand

but that's alright
caress the night
just dream of dreams of peaceful deep
and golden light for now just

sleep baby sleep
my little darling child
sleep baby sleep
where the wild things run wild

sleep baby sleep
the sky is turning red
just rest your head
church bells are ringing

just sleep baby sleep
and then when you awake
to what day brings
we'll laugh and we'll play
and when you wake
when day does break
there'll be no yesterday
on this first day of spring
we will be happy safe and gay

you know you are
my own bright shining star
my life began
when first I touched your hand
I learned the truth the truth of what I am
and now at last I understand

but as for now
just go to sleep
just go to sleep
just go to sleep
