Bethy’s Lullaby
Hush little Bethy don’t you cry
Mommy’s gonna sing you, your lullaby
Lying here side by side
Looking into your beautiful brown eyes
They’re full of Hope, Joy and Love
Sent from God himself above
Loving you it feels so right
Mommy loves to hold you tight
I kiss you once, I kiss you twice
Now it’s time for you to go nighty nite.

Now it’s time for you to go nighty nite.
Safe and sound you were sleeping
You were such an Angel you never went down weeping
As I laid you down to bed
I would gently kiss the top of your head
I covered you to keep you warm
I felt as though you were safe from harm
How wrong I was to assume you would always be around
I truly realized this as your casket was laid into the ground
I love you as though you are still here
You are always in my heart and I feel you near
Mommy needs you like the flowers need rain
Now I pray to God to help heal the pain
For you now belong to him and in his heart I must trust
Just never forget you’ll always be here with us.
