Angels Rock Me to Sleep

1 4 1
My heart is sad my soul is weary
5
While sailing o’er life’s rugged main
4 1
The clouds are dark the day is dreary
5 1
It seems all earthly hope’s in vain

1
Angels rock me to sleep (angels rock me to sleep)
4 1
In the cradle of love (in the cradle of love)
6m 2
Bear me over the deep (bear me over the deep)
5
To the heaven above (to the heaven above)
1
When the shadows shall fall (when the shadows shall fall)
4 1
And the Savior shall call (and the Savior shall call)
Angels rock me to sleep (angels rock me to sleep)
5 1
In the cradle of love

There is no earthly friend to guide me
No one to point to heaven’s door
But Christ the savior stands beside me
To cheer and comfort my poor soul

At last the harbor I am nearing
I see the lights along the shore
I hear my friends and loved ones cheering
I’ll soon be safe for ever more
