So Quietly You Lay

I watch you as you're sleeping
so quietly you lay
and think of how I love you 
more than words can say

I gently brush the hair 
from your little face
and quietly say a prayer
thanking God for you today

As I tuck you in 
sure to cover your tiny toes
I blink back a tear or two
and kiss your little nose

Quietly I whisper in your ear 
goodnight my little one,
you're so precious and so dear
I love you bigger than the sun
