Arms of the angels

Lullaby for a Soldier (Arms of the Angels)

May your dreams bring you peace in the darkness,
May you always rise over the rain.
May the light from above always lead you to love,
May you stay in the arms of the angels.
May you always be brave in the shadows
till the sun shines upon you again.
Hear this prayer in my heart
and will ne’er be apart,
May you stay in the arms of the angels.
May you hear every song in the forest
and if ever you lose your own way;
Hear my voice like a breeze
whisper soft through the trees.
May you stay in the arms of the angels
May you grow up to stand as a man, love
with the pride of your family and name.
When you lay down your head
for to rest in your bed,
May you stay in the arms of the angels.

-Maggie Siff
