As you go to bed I place an angel at your head.
As you go to sleep I place an angel at your feet.
To your left and to your right,
Angels guard you through the night until the morning comes,
Until the morning comes, may they watch over thee.
As you go to bed I place an angel at your head.
As you go to sleep I place an angel at your feet.
To your left and to your right,
Angels guard you through the night until the morning comes,
Until the morning comes, may they watch over thee.
As you go to bed I place an angel at your head.
As you go to sleep I place an angel at your feet.
To your left and to your right,
Angels guard you through the night until the morning comes,
Until the morning comes, may they watch over thee.

Background
As You Go to Bed was one of the lullabies that I wrote to sing to my son when he was a baby each night as he nursed. It became his cue to begin to think about sleeping and continues to be a comfort song for us both.
