Rest tired eyes a while Sweet is thy baby’s smile Angels are guarding and they watch o’er thee
Sleep, sleep, grah mo chree Your sorrows we do see Angels are guarding And they watch o’er thee
The birdeens sing a fluting song They sing to thee the whole day long Wee fairies dance o’er hill and dale For very love of thee
Dream, Dream, grah mo chree Peaceful your dreams will be. Angels are guarding and they watch o’er thee
The primrose in the sheltered nook The crystal stream the babbling brook All these things God’s hands have made For very love of thee
Twilight and shadows fall Peace to His children all Angels are guarding and they watch o’er thee As you sleep May Angels watch over and May they guard o’er thee
Background Information
