Do the Angels Rock the Babies

Do the Angels Rock the Babies? Do the Angels rock the Babies? Oh, please tell me it is so. When they're carried through the Cosmos; To the place where Spirits go. Do they sing with Angel sweetness; A Blessed lullaby? Do they hold them oh so gently; And rock them when they cry? I have often paused to ponder; Through the long dark passing years. Does God know that we remember? Does He see a Mother's tears? Do the Angels rock the Babies? Do they kiss and hold them close? Are they gentle care-providers? These awesome Heavenly Host. I know my God is able; And I know He values man. He will honor your endeavor; When you do the best you can. God's son was once a baby; He was Bethlehem's precious child. Our Savior once wore nappies; Though I know the concept's wild. There was a time in Heaven; When the Angels must have cried. When God gave His only son, And for us He died. Do the Angels rock the Babies? Yes, I think they understand. The pain and grief we suffer; And how our God values man.
