Grow In Your Own Sweet Way

Grow In Your Own Sweet Way

The last thing I do each night
Before turning out the light,
I check on the children as they sleep,
Peacefully dreaming there,
Blissfully unaware
Of the watch that we keep.
May you grow in your own sweet way
And blossom more every day
And follow the music in your soul.
May there be time for you to grow.

Tiptoeing down the hall,
I think of parents all,
Guiding the children in their care,
All over the world tonight,
As they turn out the light,
Whisp’ring this prayer:

(Sung as a round)
May you grow in your own sweet way
And blossom more every day
And follow the music in your soul.
May there be time for you to
Grow in your own sweet way
And blossom more every day
And follow the music in your soul
May there be time for you to grow.

This song appears on Tom Chapin's Moonboat CD.
