Starlight, star bright, first star you see tonight You wish you may, I wish you might Know that there is something bigger than life loving you Embracing you, overcoming your fear It's peace and care, it's holding you near Fill your mind with the theme of this lullaby Brahms painted an imagery with you in mind Red roses adorned and decorate your bedtime With a gentle wish for you, child, peace of mind Starlight, star bright, first star you see tonight You wish you may, I wish you might Know that there is something bigger than life loving you Embracing you, overcoming your fear It's peace and care, it's holding you near All the pretty little horses, hush-a-bye Dissolving fears of lying awake, go to sleep, don't you cry The angels are resting around your bed now Peace is surrounding you, whisper thank you out loud Starlight, star bright, first star you see tonight You wish you may, I wish you might Know that there is something bigger than life loving you Embracing you, overcoming your fear It's peace and care, it's holding you near The darkness of the night is the scene before the sunrise The racing thoughts of the day's events can ease when you rise To lift your voice right where you are and let gratitude be spoken Keep thinking on the things of good report and allow your dreams to be spoken Starlight, star bright, first star you see tonight You wish you may, I wish you might Know that there is something bigger than life loving you Embracing you, overcoming your fear It's peace and care, it's holding you near This lullaby was written and now gifted to you It's yours to keep forever and to share with others too We may not quite understand what each other endures But just as sure as there is a God in Heaven, my dear Rest is truly yours
