Song Lyrics

"Come To The Cradle"

by Michael Card
Album: Sleep Sound In Jesus (Platinum Edition)

Chorus:
Come to the cradle,
Come and find peace.
Alone in the cradle,
Simplicity sleeps.
Behold, perfect wisdom
So gentle and mild
In the innocent, upward
Trusting glance of a child.

Come hear the call
Of sweet sighs in the dark
Their touch is tender;
It touches your heart.
The bustle and business
Lasts year after year.
But this little baby
Won't always be here.

(Chorus)

When God gives a gift,
He wraps it up in a child.
He made them,
Loves them
So wondrously wild.
And so you are chosen
And called out for prayer.
So come to the cradle,
He waits for you there.

(Chorus)

In the innocent, upward,
Trusting glance of a child.
