Lyrics
Sleeping child, I wonder
Have you a dream to share?
May I see the things you see as you slumber there?
I dream a wind that speaks, like music as it blows
As if it were the breath of everything that grows
I dream a flock of birds flying through the night
Like silent stars on wings of everlasting light
Of everlasting light
Sleeping child, sleeping child
I dream a flowing river, deep as a thousand years
Its fish are frozen in sorrow, its water bitter tears
Bitter tears
I dream a tree so green, branches wide and long
And ev'ry leaf a voice, and ev'ry voice a song
A song
I dream of a babe who sleeps
A life that's just begun
A word that waits to be spoken
The promise of world to come
Sleeping child, sleeping child
Writer(s): Bob Chilcott, Charles Bennett
