God's Gift

Hush little one, now close your eyes,

And I will sing soft lullabies,

Angels caress your tiny cheek

As into dreamland you gently peek.

So quiet now you lay so still

Love upon my heart does spill.

A smile whispers across your face

As I give to you one last embrace.

So pure, so perfect, I stand in awe,

So blessed by my gift from God.
