Irene lyrics

Hush little baby don`t you cry,
Daddy`s gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything`s gonna be alright
The Lord`s gonna answer your prayer tonight.
Hush little baby don`t you cry,
Daddy`s gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything`s gonna be alright
The Lord`s gonna answer your prayer.

Last night I had a dream you was the homecoming queen
Today you`re 18, happy birthday Irene
Quit school you had to drop out to raise yourlittle child
Doesn`t seem to be anyone around
You got to reach up to touch rock bottom
The powers that be keep you downtrodden
Daughter of Zion, I heard your prayer
Just cast your cares and please beware of snakes
Tempt you, put scales on your eyelids
Don`t waste your sorrows
They`ll give you strength tomorrow
Your Calvary`s about to come so
Keep your head up, don`t you ever let up
This storm will pass you be ready fot the next one

Hey little girl with the pressures of the world on your shoulders
Don`t say that it`s over
I heard your prayers, just cast your cares
And I`ll be there so don`t you fear

Hush little baby don`t you cry,
Daddy`s gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything`s gonna be alright
The Lord`s gonna answer your prayer tonight.
Hush little baby don`t you cry,
Daddy`s gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything`s gonna be alright
The Lord`s gonna answer your prayer.

Irene I carries you when you was too weak to walk
I took to you when you gave your heart to God
Faithful and true, that`s what I`ll always be to you
Believe in you, believe in Me and these mountains have to move
You have dreams and aspirations
I knew you before creation
Your foundation`s solid
I will give you a palace, restore your soul
You`ll be up for any challenge
many storms are on the way, better sharpen up your faith
Count the cost, take up your cross
And wear it every day
Rest in me and I will give you strength
Blessed is she, Irene who seeks my face

Hush little baby don`t you cry,
Daddy`s gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything`s gonna be alright
The Lord`s gonna answer your prayer tonight.
Hush little baby don`t you cry,
Daddy`s gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything`s gonna be alright
The Lord`s gonna answer your prayer.

Father I`m stronger than when I first believed
