Baby, baby go to sleep

You're in daddy's arms, don't weep

Don't be 'fraid of darkness, dear

Daddy loves you, daddy's near



God's been mighty good to me

Daddy's thankful as can be

For the one he loves so dear

Daddy loves you. daddy's near



What if God decides to take you

Then what would I do

He should know how much you mean

So let him take me too



Close your eyes, and when you do

Angels will watch over you

When they open I'll appear

Daddy loves you, daddy's near



What if God decides to take you

Then what would I do

He should know how much you mean

So let him take me too



Close your eyes, and when you do

Angels will watch over you

When they open I'll appear

Daddy loves you, daddy's near
