I Won'T Rest

I won't  rest

My fear is creeping

 

I won't hope

Till I know your sleeping

 

I won't breathe

While your soul is shaking

 

My grief returns

When I know your waking

 

I won't  smile

Before your held in my arms

 

I won't sleep

Till your safe from all harm

 

Your my Daughter

 

I Won't  Rest
