"time for sleep my little dear"

"mother holds you, sweet arms enfold you,
so now close your eyes, time for sleep my little dear"

"...for the sandman is near. Peaceful sleep little one, soon your cares shall disappear"

My choir teacher taught this song to my class and so it reminds me of her. She died last year of cancer and I've been trying to remember the words! Can anyone help?
