Sleep Mary sleep I will be there soon
Entering earth through your precious wom
My child oh My mother of earth
Give Me the gift of birth
Sleep Joseph sleep may you dream of love
And peace to the earth through your
Newborn Son
Oh raise Me with honor and pride
I will stand by your side
CHORUS
And Ill be in your care
Safely harbored there
My heavenly host will follow Me close
But always remember, please be aware
I will be in your care
Now Israel oh My chosen one
The prophets foretold that this day
Would come
I pray you will know Im your King
Salvation is what I bring
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Care for Me and shelter Me in childhood
Knowing that someday Ill have to go
And though it may seem hopeless,
When Im hanging on the tree
You can know for certain Ill return
But, until then oh, oh
CHORUS
Youll be in My care
Safely harbored there
My heavenly host will follow you close
But always remember, please be aware
You will be in My care
Youll be in My care,
You will be, youll be in, youll be in My care
Yes, you will, you will be
You will be, youll be in, youll be in My care
