Sleep - An Andaree

Slip this mortal coil and with the angels ride All this day’s troubles now put aside Untold secrets you may keep Drift with slumber deep No more tears Sleep Forget fears Now God’s blessing reap The unknown road may be steep With sweetest dreams let your heart abide Slip this mortal coil and with the angels ride
