The lamp is on, the rain's come back
And I am staying in
The clearing closed, the blue came down
The rain began once more
But softer now, a lullaby
That taps against the door
The lamps come on across the lane
In windows, gold on gold
Homebody, stay by the window
Let the evening fall
I lay me down and sleep in peace
For He sustains it all
The little lamb is on the chair
And breathing slow and deep
It's had a scone, it's had the rain
And now it's had its sleep
One more warm cup, the last one now
And the rain to keep me company
Homebody, stay by the window
Let the evening fall
I lay me down and sleep in peace
For He sustains it all
I laid me down, I slept, I woke
The psalmist wrote it plain
For He sustained me, and He will
Tonight, beneath the rain
Mmm... mmm... mmm
Homebody, stay by the window
Let the evening fall
I lay me down and sleep in peace
For He sustains it all
Homebody, stay by the window
Let the evening fall
I lay me down and sleep in peace
For He sustains it all
The lamp is on, the rain's come back
And I am home, and warm
