Show THE CHILD'S GOOD-NIGHT TO Good nifrht, good night, dear Angel! I cannot see your wings. But I hear you in the echoes Whenever mamma sings. And when she stoops to kiss me. And leaves me in your care, I do not fear the darkness, i For you are always there. Goodnight, good night, dear Angel! I cannot see your face. But I know that you are near me In this dim and silent place. And I think vou hun tne starlets For God up in the sky To cheer at lonely bedtime Such little ones as I. Good night, good night, sweet Angel! I cannot touch your hand; But I fancy in the silence, , 1 know just where you stand . Close, close beside my pillow, In that long line of light; I I'll fold my hands together, j And say once more, good night! |
