BLANKET VELVET BLACK

by Pearl Leona Sturgis
https://www.facebook.com/pearlleona

NOW THE DARKNESS FALLS MY CHILD.
NIGHT TAKES PLACE OF DAY.
LET ME SEE THAT HAPPY SMILE.
DON'T YOU BE AFRAID.

ANGELS WATCH FROM HEAVEN'S THRONE
SPRINKLING PEACE ON THEE...
SINGING TILL THE NIGHT IS GONE.
SLEEP MY BABY, SLEEP.

THERE ARE VALLEYS DARK AND DREAR
YOU MUST JOURNEY THROUGH,
BUT MY BABY, HAVE NO FEAR.
GOD WILL GO WITH YOU.

THERE'S A BLANKET VELVET BLACK
FALLING FROM ABOVE.
HE WHO TOOK THE SUNSHINE BACK
SPREADS IT WITH HIS LOVE.
