Sleep, Little Baby

Sleep

lit­tle Ba­by

sleep

O sleep

Mother dear sang.

Tenderly rest

Child

sleep in peace

Her soft voice rang.

Sleep

heav’n­ly Child

ten­der­ly sleep

Lord God art Thou.

Heaven and earth in prais­es join

Praise to Thee now.

Lowly in man­ger cam­est Thou

Us to re­deem.

Shepherds rev­ered Thee

wor­shiped Thee

Holiest scene.

Heavenly star shone on Thee bright

Radiant Lord.

Peoples of earth are drawn to Thee

Hence ev­er­more.

Angels be si­lent

sleep

O Child

Peace may here reign.

Bow be­fore Him

ye na­tions all

In glad re­frain.

God sent His Son to set us free

Peace to ac­cord.

Let us then praise and hon­or Him

Jesus our Lord.
