Verse 1
Time has come little one
See the stars in the sky?
God is there, way up where
The shepherd moon rises high
Looking down all around
Angels watch thru the night
They gather near to help sing
Baby's first lullaby
Verse 2
Lullaby and goodnight
'til the morning I'll sing
Close your eyes and sleep tight
Hear this song in your dreams
Daddy's arms, your Mommy's charm
Feel our love hold you tight
And in the twilight hour, hear
Your first lullaby
Bridge
And, as you dance thru shadowed dreams
I look upon your face
I see the boy I used to be
You're the moonlight, the sunshine
The stars, bright and you are mine
Verse 3
Time is past. Sleep, at last
Gently knocks at the door
Rock-a-by thru the night
Sleepy now, sleep some more
Have no fear. Daddy’s here
I’ll be right by your side
‘til the rosey-fingered dawn hears
Baby’s first lullaby
