Sleep Dear Child Rose Marie Raccioppi Sleep dear child, this joyous day Sleep this night, with stars above Know the light, of God's love Sleep dear child, you'll find the way Sleep this night, the day is done When you wake, you'll greet the sun Wonderous night, this sky of blue Brilliant stars, shining new Rising sun, then night shall be A new day for our hearts' glee Gone this day, and come the dawn You will find, a bright new morn.
