The Night Watch

Bright stars are watching the world as it sleeps.

Shepherds watch over the little white sheep.

The lighthouse is shining for ships far at sea,

As God keeps the night watch for you and for me.

Dreams you have cherished are broken and gone.

Heart's dearest treasures have all been withdrwan,

But when it's the darkest, He's nearest to thee,

For God keeps the night watch for you and for me.

So sleep, sleep in peace and rest.

Don't be afraid of the darkness.

All's well over the land and the sea,

God's keeping the night watch for you and for me.

-- First verse & chorus by Cindy Walker
