VERSE:
Tonight, I hold you in my arms,
Soft and tender.
I try to keep you from all harm,
Love you forever.
PRE-CHORUS:
You are my son.
You are a savior.
You are my love.
You are a baby.
CHORUS:
So, I sing this cradle song.
So, I guard you all night long.
I sooth you as you cry,
With my yuletide lullaby.
VERSE:
You are not mine; it’s understood.
Time has a purpose.
I give you back to God for good.
I must have courage.
PRE-CHORUS:
Sleep in peace.
Peace be still.
Sleep and dream.
Dream God’s will,
For the world.
CHORUS:
So, I sing this cradle song.
So, I guard you all night long.
I sooth you as you cry,
With my yuletide lullaby.
My yuletide lullaby.
BRIDGE:
I bless you with my tears.
My heart will not give way to fear, oh.
CHORUS:
So, I sing this cradle song.
So, I guard you all night long.
I sooth you as you cry,
With my yuletide lullaby.
My yuletide lullaby, my yuletide lullaby.
