Little bird, close your eyes
The moon is watching from silver skies
In my arms, you’re safe and warm
I’ll keep you sheltered through every storm
Chorus
I promise you, my darling one
You’ll never live where shadows run
I’ll be your shelter, I’ll be your light
I’ll guide you gently through the night
Verse 2
You’ll learn from my hands, from my steady voice
I’ll show you kindness, I’ll give you choice
No chains will bind you, no cruel word stay
We’ll turn the dark into brighter days
Chorus
I promise you, my darling one
You’ll never live where shadows run
I’ll be your shelter, I’ll be your light
I’ll guide you gently through the night
Bridge
The hurt I’ve carried ends with me
You’ll spread your wings and fly so free
Every lesson, every tear I knew
Will be a road I’ve cleared for you
Final Chorus
I promise you, my darling one
You’ll never live where shadows run
I’ll hold you close until you’re grown
And watch you soar from a love well-known
Outro
Rest now, little bird, the night is kind
And peace will follow you all your life
