Sleeping Child
Words by Lydia Gott
Music By Amy Gott Carper, Lydia Gott, Wayburn Dean

I find a certain comfort a sweet tranquility
When I see a little child sleeping like a baby
Curled up in a blanket I watch him for awhile
And wonder if God above sees me as a sleeping child

CHORUS
I wanna be a sleeping child
Wrapped in you blanket of grace
Let me rest in your gentle love
Let me feel you warm embrace
I wanna be sleeping child
See the peace I feel inside
Hold me close like fathers do
And in Your arms I will abide

As I read Your written Word you sing a lullaby
Every time I fall in sin You wipe my tears dry
You truly are my Father and I know you care for me
You love me as Your little child sleeping like a baby

CHORUS

You sing a lullaby, tranquility
You wipe my tears dry
I wanna be a sleeping child
See the peace I feel inside
Hold me close like fathers do
And in Your arms I will abide

Sleeping like a baby
All that matters is what's in the heart
I wanna be a sleeping child
