All Through the Night

Sheryl Crow

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 dale 
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 

Though I roam 
A minstrel lonely 
All through the night 
My true harp shall 
Praise sing only 
All through the night 
Love's young dream 
Alas, is over 
Yet my strains of love 
Shall hover 
Near the presence 
Of my lover 
All through the night 

Hark 
A solemn bell is ringing 
Clear through the night 
Thou, my love 
Art heavenward winging 
Home through the night 
Earthly dust 
From off thee shaken 
Soul immortal 
Shalt thou awaken 
With thy last dim 
Journey taken 
Home through the night
