Little child, be not afraid
|
The rain pounds harsh against the glass
|
Like an unwanted stranger
|
There is no danger
|
I am here tonight
|
|
Little child
|
Be not afraid
|
Though thunder explodes
|
And lightning flash
|
Illuminates your tearstained face
|
I am here tonight
|
|
And someday you'll know
|
That nature is so
|
This same rain that draws you near me
|
Falls on rivers and land
|
And forests and sand
|
Makes the beautiful world that you see
|
In the morning
|
|
Little child
|
Be not afraid
|
The storm clouds mask your beloved moon
|
And its candlelight beams
|
Still keep pleasant dreams
|
I am here tonight
|
|
Little child
|
Be not afraid
|
The wind makes creatures of our trees
|
And the branches to hands
|
They're not real, understand
|
And I am here tonight
|
|
And someday you'll know
|
That nature is so
|
This same rain that draws you near me
|
Falls on rivers and land
|
And forest and sand
|
Makes the beautiful world that you see
|
In the morning
|
|
For you know, once even I
|
Was a little child
|
And I was afraid
|
But a gentle someone always came
|
To dry all my tears
|
Trade sweet sleep the fears
|
And to give a kiss goodnight
|
|
Well, now I am grown
|
And these years have shown
|
Rain's a part of how life goes
|
But it's dark and it's late
|
So I'll hold you and wait
|
'til your frightened eyes do close
|
|
And I hope that you'll know
|
That nature is so
|
This same rain that draws you near me
|
Falls on rivers and land
|
And forests and sand
|
Makes the beautiful world that you see
|
In the morning
|
|
Everything's fine in the morning
|
The rain will be gone in the morning
|
But I'll still be here in the morning
|
