Sooner than I wanted, Dad was gone. Life forever changed for us all when this gentle man was no longer a physical part of our daily lives. I struggled to find peace in my heart, but I missed him greatly. My husband put the baby monitor away, we no longer sat on the porch in the evenings, and there was no nightly ritual of “God Bless the Moon.”

You are here: Home Song Lyrics I See the Moon I See the Moon I see the moon (and) the moon sees me The moon sees the somebody I'd like to see God Bless the moon and God Bless me And God Bless the somebody I'd like to see. It seems to me that God above Created you for me to love He picked you out from all the rest Because he knew I loved you best I once had a heart as good as new But now it's gone from me to you Take care of it as I have done For you have two and I have none If I get to heaven and you're not there I'll carve your name on a golden stair A way up high for all to see Just how much you mean to me Author: Traditional

I See the Moon is a popular nursery rhyme that is often found as the last rhyme in books of nursery rhymes for children. Its position at the end of books of nursery rhymes make it seem like a goodnight prayer for the end of the day. In fact, the many variations of the rhyme increase the sense that the verse is that of blessing. Of course, the illustrations of cherubic children gazing wistfully out the window at a benevolent moon also enhance the peaceful concept that people have of the verse.
