Baby, baby go to sleep   You're in daddy's arms, don't weep   Don't be 'fraid of darkness, dear   Daddy loves you, daddy's near      God's been mighty good to me   Daddy's thankful as can be   For the one he loves so dear   Daddy loves you. daddy's near      What if God decides to take you   Then what would I do   He should know how much you mean   So let him take me too      Close your eyes, and when you do   Angels will watch over you   When they open I'll appear   Daddy loves you, daddy's near      What if God decides to take you   Then what would I do   He should know how much you mean   So let him take me too      Close your eyes, and when you do   Angels will watch over you   When they open I'll appear   Daddy loves you, daddy's near
