Lyrics
Verse 1:
Tender little baby
So peaceful here beside me
Picture of God's perfect love
As I watch you sleeping
And feel your tiny heartbeat
I wonder what you're dreaming of
Chorus:
Child of my heart, breath of my soul
One thing I pray you'll know
Whatever you do, whoever you'll be
You'll always be precious to me
VERSE 2:
Innocent are your eyes
You tickle me with your smile
Each sound you make's a new song
I'll cherish every moment
Will be here as you grow up
Love you and guide you along
Chorus:
Child of my heart, breath of my soul
One thing I pray you'll know
Whatever you do, whoever you'll be
You'll always be precious to me
Chorus (repeat):
Child of my heart, breath of my soul
One thing I pray you'll know
Whatever you do, whoever you'll be
You'll always be precious to me
