Evensong by Liza Lehmann Lyrics
Fold your white wings, dear Angels
Fold your white wings;
Dew falls and nightingale softly now sings
Across the lawn lie shadows, so still, so deep
Dear loving Angels, pass not by
Hush me to sleep
Night falls, and whisp'ring goes the wind
Along the sea;
Fold your white wings, dear Angels
Fold them, dear Angels
Fold them round me
Fold your white wings;
Dew falls and nightingale softly now sings
Across the lawn lie shadows, so still, so deep
Dear loving Angels, pass not by
Hush me to sleep
Night falls, and whisp'ring goes the wind
Along the sea;
Fold your white wings, dear Angels
Fold them, dear Angels
Fold them round me
