Joyce Johnson Poet Rhyme

Sleep My Child

Silent night, Holy night,
Sleep my child until light.
God has sent His angels to you
To keep you safe the whole night through.
Sleep to my lullaby
Sleep to my lullaby.

Christmas morn, Christmas morn
The Christ Child has been born,
To bring the world sweet peace and love,
A Christmas gift from God above.
Praising God for his birth.
Praising God for his birth.


Written for Brian Strand's contest.won 8th place
