The Divine Lullaby by Eugene Field

I hear Thy voice dear Lord

I hear it by the stormy sea

When winter nights are black and wild

And when affright I call to Thee

It calms my fears and whispers me

Sleep well my child

I hear Thy voice dear Lord

In singing winds in falling snow

The curfew chimes the midnight bell

Sleep well my child

It murmurs low

The guardian angels come and go

O child sleep well

I hear Thy voice dear Lord

Ay though the singing winds be stilled

Though hushed the tumult of the deep

My fainting heart with anguish chilled

By Thy assuring tone is thrilled

Fear not and sleep

Speak on speak on dear Lord

And when the last dread night is near

With doubts and fears and terrors wild

Oh let my soul expiring hear

Only these words of heavenly cheer

Sleep well my child
