All Through The Night (version 1) Lyrics - Singles - Children

Sleep, my child, and peace attend thee, 

All through the night; 

Guardian angels God will send thee, 

All through the night; 

Soft the drowsy hours are creeping, 

Hill and vale in slumber sleeping, 

I my loving vigil keeping, 

All through the night. 

While the moon her watch is keeping, 

All through the night; 

While the weary world is sleeping, 

All through the night; 

O'er thy spirit gently stealing, 

Visions of delight revealing, 

Breathes a pure and holy feeling, 

All through the night. 

Hark, a solemn bell is ringing, 

Clear through the night; 

You, my love, are heav'nward winging, 

Home through the night. 

Earthly dust from off thee shaken, 

By good angels art though taken; 

Soul immortal shalt though waken, 

Home through the night.
