kitty whately, nicholas phan & anna tilbrook - sleep lyrics

[verse 1]
come, sleep, and with thy sweet deceiving
lock me in delight awhile
let some pleasing dreams beguile
all my fancies; that from thence
i may feel an influence
all my powers of care bereaving

[verse 2]
though but a shadow, but a sliding
let me know some little joy!
we that suffer long annoy
are contented with a thought
through an idle fancy wrought
o let my joys have some abiding
o let my joys have some abiding
