He Grants Sleep to Those He Loves

Today was so full and so busy for both of us
But for tonight all those burdens can keep
Come, let sweet Jesus be the light in your darkness
And open the way to the paradise of sleep

For He grants sleep to the ones that He loves
And I live to love you as well
The last words you'll hear tonight will be, "I love you"
For love take us all of our lifetime to tell

Your tender sadness, it touches the heart of me
Howling and scowling just make you more dear
With all this commotion now, what could the trouble be?
For your sake, my darling
I'll always be near

For He grants sleep to the ones that He loves
And I live to love you as well
The last words you'll hear tonight will be, "I love you"
For love take us all of our lifetime to tell

For He grants sleep to the ones that He loves
And I live to love you as well
The last words you'll hear tonight will be, "I love you"
For love take us all of our lifetime to tell
