God in heaven loves you, too.
As you dream His angels watch over you.
Rest well, my baby, rest well. And when the dawn is coming,
I’ll be there for you
To hold you in the morning
And love you all day through. Rest well, my baby, I love you.
God in heaven loves you, too.
As you dream, His angels watch over you.
Rest well, my baby, rest well. And God will love and keep you.
You’re His baby too.
And I’ll be there to greet you
When dawn brings life anew. Rest well, my baby, I love you.
God in heaven loves you, too.
As you dream, His angels watch over you. Rest well, my baby, rest well. Olive: Rest well, my baby, rest well.
Daris and his wife, Donna, have ten children and were foster parents for several years. He has also worked in scouting and cub scouts, at one time having 18 boys in his scout troop.
His plays, musicals, and books build on the characters of those he has associated with, along with his many experiences, to bring his work to life.
He and his family have enjoyed running a summer community theatre where he gets a chance to premiere his theatrical works and rework them to make them better. His published plays and books can be seen at http://www.darishoward.com. He has plays translated into German and French and his work has been done in many countries around the world.
In the last few years, Daris has started writing books and short stories. He writes a popular news column called Life’s Outtakes, that consists of weekly short stories and is published in various newspapers and magazines in the U.S. and Canada and has won many awards for his writing.
