God is keeping the night watch for you and me

Bright stars are watching the world as it sleeps
Sheperds watch over their little white sheep
The lighthouse is shining for the ships far at sea
As God keeps the lighthouse for you and for me

So sleep, sleep in peace and rest
Don't be afraid of the darkness
All's well over the land and the sea
God's keeping a night watch for you and for me

God's keeping a night watch for you and for me

So sleep, sleep in peace and rest
Don't be afraid of the darkness
All's well over the land and the sea
God's keeping a night watch for you and for me
