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
Mothers here my 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
Night's dark shades will soon be ended
Watchful care shall still be tended
God, with me, our love so splendid
All through the night
