Have you heard the song, Sing Me a Lullaby? When I first heard this I was really fascinated. It was Lea Salonga who was singing the song and she rendered it beautifully. The song goes like this:
All I see is that I don't see what's ahead of me
I'm afraid my life will never be all I hope for in the end
All I know is that I don't know where the road will go
If I dream, then will I find it so
Will tomorrow be my friend?
Sing me a lullaby, sing me to sleep tonight
Sing me a tender lullaby cause all my heart can do is cry.
Help me compose my soul, quietly take control
Sing me a lullaby and tell me I'm your child.
All my plans are falling through
And I don't understand
Yes, I know, my world is in your hand
But won't you tell me once again?"
It's the child's frail heart that sings in this song! It's about the child's fears and worries on the uncertainties of his future and how he finds the much needed comfort and assurance on his mother's lullaby. The meaningful message was effectively delivered in one lovely melody. The melodious progression of the rhythm perfectly fitted the well structured verses of the song. I researched who sang the original version of the song and found out it was Twila Paris. I listened to her and it delighted my heart. She’s got a clear, powerful voice that will leave your heart fully satisfied. I know this will delight you too so I encourage you mothers to buy your copy so that you too could sing and teach this sweet lullaby to your children.
