|
Sleep baby Jesus |
|
Close your weary eyes |
|
Hide yourself in faithful dreams |
|
Before yo live yor life |
|
Slip away to heaven |
|
And rest in gentle peace |
|
Never to awaken |
|
The Lord your soul to keep |
|
Chorus: |
|
Cause your feet will walk on water |
|
Your eye will pierce the dark |
|
Your heart will save the souls of men |
|
Your hands will bear the scars |
|
Sleep baby Jesus |
|
For now your time has come |
|
To heal the wounded leper |
|
To calm the raging storm |
|
With perfect steps of perfect grace |
|
You leave behind your fear |
|
And walk along these dusty roads |
|
Though your fate is clear |
|
Chorus: |
|
'Cause your feet walk on water |
|
Your eyes pierce the dark |
|
Your heart will save the souls of men |
|
Your hands will bear the scars |
|
Sleep baby Jesus |
|
My Father and my child |
|
Beneath this broken cross of sin |
|
Stained with men's denial |
|
And though you now are breathless |
|
With thorns upon your head |
|
Your body has been broken |
|
So your children can be fed |
|
Chorus: |
|
'Cause your feet have walked on water |
|
Your eye have pierced the dark |
|
Your heart as saved the souls of men |
|
Your hands now bear the scars |
