Close Your Eyes

Chorus 1:
Close your eyes
Nothing will harm you
His love will never fade with the sun
Close your eyes
Let nothing alarm you
Jesus will hold you 'til morning comes

There is peace in the Spirit (peace in the Lord)
Like the peace in our home (peace in the home)
Though the house may seem quiet (ever quiet)
It doesn't mean you're alone (never alone)
Someone is watching (Jesus is watching)
As you lay down your head (lay down your head)
You can rest in assurance (calm assurance)
When your prayers have been said (close your little eyes)

Chorus 2:
So close your eyes (close your eyes)
Nothing will harm you
His love will never fade with the sun (fade away)
Close your eyes (close your little eyes)
Let nothing alarm you
Jesus will hold you 'til morning comes (hold you)

You're looking for reasons (reasons for life)
You're looking for rhyme (searching for rhyme)
Curiosity strengthens (God is so good)
And the questions combine (questions)
The search for your answers (answers to life)
Have come to an end (come to an end)
But tomorrow is coming (come tomorrow)
And you can start it again (close your little eyes)

Repeat Chorus 2

And now as you rest (now as you rest)
And the Spirit abides
Dream of the angels (dream of the angels)
Who live in the light
Dream of a Father (dream of a Father)
Who's holding you tight
Hold on (hold on) to Him
Hold on (hold on)…

Interlude (Close your eyes, fade away, close your little eyes, hold you)

Repeat Chorus 2

Until the morning comes

Postlude (Close your eyes, fade away, close your little eyes)
