Golden Cradle Lyrics
by Emmylou Harris
Sweet babe, a golden cradle holds thee
Soft thy mother's arms enfold thee
Fairest flowers are strewn before thee
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e45743-emmylou_harris~golden_cradle_lyrics.html ]
Sweet birds warble o'er thee
So sleep, my babe, and dream away sorrow
Peace until you wake tomorrowI will guide thine infant slumbers
Angels watch thy number
