Lyrics
Lover of a Sleeping Child
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You can see it clearly
In a baby's eyes
It's always unexpected
Such a sweet surprise
It's the love of God (it is the love of God)
It's the love of God (it is the love of God)
Shining through (shining through, shining through, shining through)
Chorus:
He's the lover of a sleeping child (sleeping child)
A gentle Father through the night (through the night)
He's the lover of a sleeping child (He's the lover of a sleeping child)
And you can close your eyes (you can close your eyes)
It'll be all right (it'll be all right)
He's the lover of a sleeping child tonight (tonight, tonight)
It's in a mother's answer
When a baby cries (her baby cries)
So patient and so tender (so tender)
Makes you realize (makes you realize)
That it's the love of God (it is the love of God)
It's the love of God (it is the love of God)
Shining through (shining through, shining through, shining through)
Repeat Chorus
The Father of all the world (the world)
Wants you to understand (understand)
Wherever you are tonight
You're in the Father's hands (you're in His hands)
Repeat Chorus
