Sleep well, my Son Through the long day. Fear not the bright light' I stand guard by your side. They came today'. Loved ones and friends, Crying, 'Here lies one Who was noble and brave Who caused no grief' And left me weeping at your grave.
Sleep well, my Son Through the dark night Fear not the fading light' I stand vigil by your side. They came today ' The creatures of the night, I cried, ' Here lies one Who is innocent and alone Who caused no pain'. And they left me to grieve at your tombstone.
Sleep well, my Son For, when you wake Fear not the strange light'. I shall hasten to your side. We will walk together Through the eternal light. Angels will cry,' Come hither, We heard your cries. Suffer no more'.' And we will walk together through the gates of paradise.
