Lyrics
Soothe me softly, rock me gently,
Tuck my quilt around my toes.
I am yawning, sun is gone and
Father God knows where it goes.
Soothe me softly, rock me gently,
Kiss my forehead, rub my back.
I am sleepy, night is creeping
Stars of silver, sky so black.
BRIDGE: Sleep is sweet when You are near,
Soothe me softly, banish fear.
Breathing deep, I drift away
Hold me close, My Lord, I pray.
Soothe me softly, rock me gently,
Raindrops sing a lullabye
Window-tapping, softly chanting;
God is guarding.....Safe am I.
