Somewhere A Child Is Sleeping Lyrics - John Mcdermott

The snow is softly falling 

The night is cold and grey 

The forests fields and mountains 

Await the coming day 

One star outshines the others 

So bright as if to say 

This is a special morning 

A child was born on christmas day. 

Long ago, far away 

In a stable bare 

Look and see, he sleeps so peacefully 

As if the cold of night were never there 

Bless all the little children 

Whenever they may lay 

Somewhere a child is sleeping 

A child was born on christmas day. 

So we might love each other 

In peace and honor's way 

Somewhere a child is sleeping 

A child was born on christmas day 

To save the world from sadness 

His troubled life he gave 

To offer hope and gladness 

Our weary souls to save 

To comfort us in trouble 

To guide us ev'ryday 

One hope for life eternal 

A child was born on christmas day 

Long ago, far away 

In a stable bare 

Look and see he sleeps so peacefully 

As if the cold of night were never there 

Bless all the little children 

Where ever they may lay 

Somewhere a child is sleeping 

A child was born on christmas day. 

So we might love each other 

In peace and honor's way 

Somewhere a child is sleeping 

A child was born on christmas day.
