Hush! my dear, lie still and slumber;
Holy angels guard thy bed!
Heavenly blessings without number
Gently falling on thy head.
Sleep, my babe; thy food and raiment,
House and home thy friends provide:
All without thy care or payment,
All thy wants are well supplied.
How much better thou’rt attended
Than the Son of God could be
When from heaven he descended
And became a child like thee!
Soft and easy is thy cradle,
Coarse and hard thy Saviour lay
When his birth-place was a stable,
And his softest bed was hay.
See the simple shepherds round him,
Telling wonders from the sky!
There they sought him, there they found him,
With his Virgin Mother by.
Lo! he slumbers in his manger,
Where the horned oxen fed;
Peace, my darling, here’s no danger,
Here’s no ox a-near thy bed.
’Twas to save thee, child, from dying,
Save my dear from burning flame,
Bitter groans and endless crying,
That thy blest redeemer came.
May’st thou live to know and fear him,
Trust and love him all thy days;
Then go dwell for ever near him,
See his face, and sing his praise!
