Dakota
Lullaby
by Shirley Starke
Sleep and rest on my breast,
Little love and my treasure,
Safe and warm in my arms:
Love is too great to measure.
Cold winds blow o'er the
snow,
January is passing.
Never let us forget,
Peace is not everlasting.
Swirling snow, death and
war
Fill the cold world about
us.
Let us pray, long they may
Do their swirling without
us.
Sunset's glow, stars and
snow:
God surrounds us with
beauty.
Why must we chiefly see
Fear and want and duty?
Young or old, warm or cold,
God has us in His keeping.
Yet shall we, while we may,
Love our life and your
sleeping.
