The Night Watchman

When the night falls And the moon is up high, You can be rest assured the Night watchman will be stopping by. As he does each and every night When we all go to bed This is at a time when our comfort Is most needed so we can rest our heads. After a long hard days work After a busy and stressful day, Whatever the case may be The night watchman is here to stay. His role is the greatest of all His position no man can hold He’ll never fault at his duties He watches over all both young and old. As we go about our daily lives Day after day night after night The night watchman is always working At any given time not once losing sight. Of every man, woman and child On any given day as they each come anew No, he’s not alone he has an army Of angels as his crew. Keeping tabs on everyone and everything Even creatures great and small, There’s no such thing as out of sight When the night watchman is on call. So no matter who, where or what we are Even if a word is never to be spoken The night watchman’s eyes and ears For you and I will always be open.
