Lullaby Kiss
I’ll kiss you now and then when you’re asleep
I’ll kiss your forehead, brushing back your hair
One kiss to wipe away and one to keep
And one more kiss to take you safely there
A kiss to bring you comfort in your dreams
A kiss to guard your heart throughout the night
A kiss is always more than what it seems
And kisses are what give the stars their light
I’ll kiss you now and then when you’re asleep
I’ll kiss your forehead, brushing back your hair
One kiss to wipe away and one to keep
And one more kiss to take you safely there
I’ll kiss you now and then when you’re asleep
One kiss to wipe away and one to keep
Lullaby Whispers
As I lean down to tuck you into bed
And kiss your cheek, and kiss your sleepy head,
I hope you know I’m glad that we’re so near,
And so I whisper softly in your ear:
I hope you know I’m glad that we’re so near,
And I can whisper softly in your ear.
As you begin to close your weary eyes
And as your dreams begin with gentle sighs
I hope you know I love you and adore
And so I whisper this to you once more:
I hope you know I love you and adore
And I will whisper this to you once more.
So sleep and let my whispers linger still,
And so the hopes I’ve whispered always will.
Lullaby Blessing
Goodnight my son, may beauty fill your dreams
Remember through the night your mother’s kiss
Like gentle water flows through gentle streams
And gentle rain proceeds from gentle mists
Goodnight my son, may angels guard your peace
And may an angel always sing for you
And may the songs she sings make love increase
The love for one becomes the love for two
Goodnight my son, the child of my day
The joy that fills my heart and makes me smile
Goodnight my son, these final words I’ll say
Then leave you to your sleeping for a while
I wish that I could always hold you tight
And always wish your soul a sweet goodnight
A Hug
A Hug
A hug is how you know a friend is real;
They wrap their arms around and pull you near.
And in that moment everything you feel
Is shared and there is nothing left to fear.
A hug can make the darkest day seem bright,
Or make a day already bright pure bliss.
A hug is like the dawn that ends the night,
And often its a prelude to a kiss.
Like home, a hug is comfortable and warm.
Like love, a hug is given full and free.
Like shelter from a fierce and raging storm
A hug is where the heart can safely be.
Like every mother kneels to hug her child,
A hug can make this wicked world less wild.
