Slumber My Darling - Susan Erens
(Stephen Foster)
Slumber my darling thy mother is near
Guarding thy dreams from all terror and fear
Sunlight has pass'd and the twilight has gone
Slumber my darling the night's coming on
Sweet visions attend thy sleep
Fondest dearest to me
While others their revels keep
I will watch over thee
Slumber my darling the birds are at rest
The wandering dews by the flowrs are caressed
Slumber my darling I'll wrap thee up warm
And pray that the angels will shield thee from harm
Sweet visions attend thy sleep
Fondest dearest to me
While others their revels keep
I will watch over thee
Slumber my darling the birds are at rest
The wandering dews by the flowrs are caressed
Slumber my darling I'll wrap thee up warm
And pray that the angels will shield thee from harm
