I love this children's song. My inspiration came one COLD winter night when I was walking a dog for a friend with one of my children. The moon was huge and hung so low on that night it looked as though if you were in the right spot you could jump on it! I hope your children (and you) enjoy this one! - Nancy

The Moon
(Words and Music by Nancy Carey Johnson)

Vs. 1:
The Moon, the Moon,
The moon hangs in the sky
With a twinkle in his eye, The Moon
Some times when it sits so low
We could jump on it and go
With The Moon
Some times I hear it talking to me
Clearly through the trees
His voice is soft and gentle
Like a whisper on the breeze

Vs. 2:
The Moon, the Moon
Sometimes it shines so bright
It lights up the whole night, The Moon
When he hides his face away
The stars come out and play, The Moon
Sometimes I see him smile at me
When I say my prayers
At night when I am dreaming
He sweeps away my cares

Vs. 3:
The Moon, The Moon,
When it’s just a sliver
It still sparkles on the river, The Moon
Sometimes it’s big and round
Shows my shadow on the ground, The Moon
It follows me at night, everywhere I go
It always travels with me
Moving really slow

Vs. 4:
The Moon, the Moon,
The moon hangs in the sky
With a twinkle in his eye, The Moon
Some times when it sits so low
We could jump on it and go
With The Moon
Some times I hear it talking to me
Clearly through the trees
His voice is soft and gentle
Like a whisper on the breeze

The Moon, the Moon,
The moon hangs in the sky
With a twinkle in his eye, The Moon
