"Be near me, Lord Jesus!
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care
And take us to heaven
To live with Thee there."
I guess it sort of loses something when you aren't hearing Mom sing it over the baby monitors from the nursery. This is the 3rd verse of Away in a Manger that she used as Luke's lullaby in his duck-themed nursery 28 years ago. From the sound of it, she hasn't lost her charm.
