[Intro - soft hum]
Mmm… ahh-ee… mmm… ohh-ee-ah…

[Verse 1 - tender, intimate]
Before the world was wakened
Before the stars were strung
He was thinking of you, little one
(ahh-ee) before your song was sung
Not a thought that came in passing
Not a name He chanced to find
You were written in the morning
Of the everlasting Mind

[Chorus - gentle, warm]
From the womb He established you
Ohh-ee-ah, from before the first of days
You were never an accident
You were authored, you were praised
Sleep now, little wonder
(mmm) you were loved before the light
The Hand that holds the heavens
Holds your cradle in the night

[Verse 2 - tender, intimate]
He did not borrow Adam's ledger
He did not need a middle man
He bent down to the dust Himself
(ahh-ee) and He breathed you in His plan
Every hair the Father numbered
Every breath the Spirit gave
You're a thought of God in motion
From the cradle to the grave

[Chorus - gentle, warm]
From the womb He established you
Ohh-ee-ah, from before the first of days
You were never an accident
You were authored, you were praised
Sleep now, little wonder
(mmm) you were loved before the light
The Hand that holds the heavens
Holds your cradle in the night

[Bridge - hushed, the single swell]
Hush, hush, ahh-ee, the dark is kind
You were dreamed in a loving Mind
Hush, hush, ohh-ee-ah, you're wanted here
You were chosen, you were near

[Final Chorus - tender, lifting once]
From the womb He established you
Ohh-ee-ah, and He'll keep you to the end
You were never an accident
You were authored, little friend
Sleep now, little wonder
(mmm) you were loved before the light
The Hand that holds the heavens
Holds your cradle through the night

[Outro - soft hum, fading]
Mmm… ahh-ee… you were loved before the light…
Ohh-ee-ah… sleep now, little wonder…
