He Never Sleeps
Mary Rice Hopkins
Sleep Little One - Mary Rice Hopkins
Lyrics
I was reading about the sheep
When I nodded my head, almost fell asleep
My little boy said, "Mommy, how does it end?"
A nudge and a smile then I heard him say,
"I know you are tired and you've had a long day
But don't you worry, God is watching me"
Chorus:
Oooh God is watching
Oooh when we are sleeping
He is here watching over me
When we slumber He never sleeps
Oooh He never sleeps
So the next night I read to the end
Of the Good Shepherd then tucked him in
By the light of the moon he was counting sheep
It's time to rest and I should too
Always remember how much I love you
And don't you worry, God is watching me
When we slumber He never sleeps
When we slumber He never sleeps
