Let the children fly
On the wings of sweet slumber
High up in the sky
While the world dies
Let the children fly
While the world beneath crumbles

You got to let them fly
Wings of sweet slumber

For they're meek and humble
Let the children fly past
All the doubting eyes

Let the children ride
The horses pure and white
Down in the green fields
Full of joy and delight

You got to let them ride
White horses of slumber

You got to let them fly
Wings of sweet slumber

They're meek and humble
Let the children fly past
All the doubting eyes

While the world dies
While the world dies
While the world dies
