FcITH'S LULLcBY

Hush little baby don't say word
Daddy's gonna buy you a mocking bird
cnd if that mocking bird don't sing
Don't you cry repose and think

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be just fine
It's gonna be alright
Cause God is on your side

Hush little baby don't you sigh
Go out and play under the blue sky
cnd if that sky fills up with grey
Gratified look up and say

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be just fine
It's gonna be alright
Cause God is on your side
Cause God is on your side
Cause God is on your side

God has not forgotten you
He will see you through (He will see you through, oh)
So rest easy, sleep peacefully
You will be alright

Hush little baby can't you see
God's in control of everything
So when it's dark and life seems bleak
Remember these words and begin to sing

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be just fine
It's gonna be alright
Cause God is on your side
Cause God is on your side




Cause God is on your side
Cause God is on your side
