Within a manger peaceful lies The little Christ asleep While o'er him Mother Mary bends, Her faithful watch to keep. Lullaby, lullaby, Angels are singing up in the sky; Lullaby, lullaby, "Glory to God most high" The shepherds kneel around his bed, And gaze with wond'ring eyes. Upon the Babe of Bethlehem, The Lord of earth and skies. Lullaby, lullaby, Angels are singing up in the sky; Lullaby, lullaby, "Glory to God most high" We cannot see his blessed face, As wise men did of old, But we can give to him our love, More precious far than gold. Lullaby, lullaby, Angels are singing up in the sky; Lullaby, lullaby, "Glory to God most high"
