Lyrics
Verse 1
Sleep, my precious one, close your weary eyes,
Stars shine bright above, lighting up the skies.
Angels whisper low, singing soft and sweet,
May the love of Christ make your rest complete.

Chorus
Hush now, darling, rest in grace,
Safe in God’s embrace.
May His mercy be your light,
Through the dark of night.

Verse 2
Winds blow through the hills, dancing on the sea,
God who calms the waves watches over thee.
Like the shepherd kind, He will guard and keep,
Ever by your side, even as you sleep.

Chorus
Hush now, darling, rest in grace,
Safe in God’s embrace.
May His mercy be your light,
Through the dark of night.

Bridge
Blessings fall like morning dew,
Jesus holds your heart so true.
Peace be yours till morning’s light,
Bathed in love so bright.

Final Chorus
Hush now, darling, rest in grace,
Safe in God’s embrace.
May His mercy be your light,
Through the dark of night.

Yay! It looks like this melody can be played offline on a 30 note paper strip music box!

All you need to do is:

  1. Get a 30 note DIY Music Box Kit from our online store page if you don't have one
  2. Export the melody to PDF with paper strips, print it out and cut with scissors. Make sure to use the right paper size and set you printer scale to 100%, otherwise the size won't match. It's better when paper strips are thick, so if you are going to use thin office paper, we recommend you to glue two or three layers together. Another option is to laminate paper strips with a transparent duct tape
  3. Punch holes with a tool from the music box kit
  4. Enjoy your favorite melody playing on a real music box!
