I will take care, take care of thee.

I will take care of thee, my child,
Care of thee, care of thee;
I will take care of thee, my child,

I will take care of thee;
Fear not when troubles dash over thy soul,
I will take care, take care of thee. [Refrain]

I will take care of thee;
I will deliver when I hear thy cry,
I will take care, take care of thee. [Refrain]

I will take care of thee;
Safe in my arms I will carry thee o’er,
I will take care, take care of thee. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Fear not, O child of mine, I am thy God]
