[Verse 1]

A little baby told God, "Hey, I'm kinda scared

Don't really know if I wanna go down there

From here it looks like a little blue ball

But that's a great big place and I'm so small"

[Verse 2]

Why can't I just stay here with you?

Did I make you mad, don't you want me, too?

And God said, "Oh, child, of course I do

But there's somebody special waiting for you"

[Chorus]

So, hush now, baby

Don't you cry

'Cause there's someone down there waiting

Whose only goal in life

Is making you sure you're always

Gonna be alright

A loving angel, tender tough and strong

It's almost time to go and meet your mom

[Verse 3]

You'll never have a better friend

Or a warmer touch to tuck you in

And she'll kiss your bruises, your bumps and scrapes

And anytime you hurt, her heart's gonna break

[Chorus]

So, hush now, baby

Don't you cry

'Cause there's someone down there waiting

Whose only goal in life

Is making you sure you're always

Gonna be alright

A loving angel, tender tough and strong

It's almost time to go and meet your mom

[Bridge]

Now when she’s talking to you

Make sure you listen close

Cause she's gonna teach everything

You'll ever need to know

Like how to mind your manners

To love and laugh and dream

And she'll put you on the path

That'll bring you back to me

[Chorus]

So, hush now, baby

Don't you cry

'Cause there's someone down there waiting

Whose only goal in life

Is making you sure you're always

Gonna be alright

A loving angel, tender tough and strong

Come on child it's time to meet your mom
