Lullaby: Go to sleep my little one
10. Lullaby: Go to sleep my little one
The tune of this song came first, rather than the words, as I sat at the piano grieving over the death of a young girl, a former pupil of mine, due to a road accident.
Through prayer I received a mental picture of a child held in God’s arms. I knew she had found peace in Him.
