I Woke Before The Morning, I Was Happy All The Day,
I Never Said An Ugly Word, But Smiled A Stuck To Play.
And Now At Last The Sun Is Going Down Behind The Wood,
And I Am Very Happy, For I Know That I’ve Been Good.
My Bed Is Waiting Cool And Fresh, With Linen Smooth And Fair,
And I Must Off To Sleep Again, And Not Forget My Prayer.
I Know That, Till Tomorrow I Shall See The Sun Arise,
No Ugly Dream Shall Fright My Mind, No Ugly Sight My Eyes.
But Slumber Hold Me Tightly Till I Waken The Dawn,
And Hear The Thrushes Singing In The Lilacs Round The Lawn.
