Lullaby from Redemption's Mystery by Elizabeth Busch Letourneau

Rest, My love
The gentle rain is falling on the roof
Night has come
Let go your cares until the day returns
Hush, my child
The mockingbird is singing out her song
Go to bed
For even as you dream my love surrounds you

So rest in Me
Give in to peace
Let sleep’s sweetest mercies enfold you
Let go the day
Fall into grace
For hope springs up new every morning when
You wake again
I’ll be there then
Still holding you

Still your thoughts
The anxious, restless beating of your heart
Shed your fears
And trust the Father’s love to guard tonight
Don’t you fret
There’s nothing you can do about it now
Close your eyes
The night won’t flutter faster for your watching

Chorus

(Oooh… Oooh…)

And when the day breaks, I’ll wake you with singing
As the morning sky’s painted with blue
The sunrise shines on both sadness and beauty
And you’ll need all the strength
The night can give to you

So rest, My love
Hush, My child
Close your eyes
And sleep.
