“When Night is Falling” 

 

 

 

 


When the night is falling
And the day is done
I can hear you calling, “Come”
I will come, while you sing over me.
When the night surrounds me
All my dreams undone
I can hear you calling, “Come”
I will come, while you sing over me.

When the night would hide my way…
I will listen until I hear you say,
“How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you!”
“How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you!”
When this life is over…
And the race is run…
I can hear you calling, “Come”
I will come, while you sing over me.

When the night is falling
And the day is done
I can hear you calling, “Come”
I will come, while you sing over me.
When the night surrounds me
All my dreams undone
I can hear you calling, “Come”
I will come, while you sing over me.

When the night would hide my way…
I will listen until I hear you say,
“How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you!”
“How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you child! I love you!
How I love you!”
