Sing me to sleep
The shadows fall
Let me forget the world and all.
Tired is my heart
The day is long
Would it were come to even (evening) song
Sing me to sleep
Your hand in mine
Our fingers as in prayer entwine
Only your voice, love, let me hear
Singing to tell me you are near
Love
I am lonely
Years are so long
I want you only, You and your song
Dark is life's shore
The night is so deep
Leave me no more, sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
Love
You alone seem to be left me, for mine own
Happily my heart will know no pain
When I awake from sleep again
Sing me to sleep, and let me rest.
Of all the world, I love you best
Nothing is faithful, nothing true
In heaven or earth, but
God and You
