Sleep, Holy Babe, Upon Thy mother's breast; Great Lord of earth and sea and sky, How sweet It is to see Thee lie In such a place of restl
Sleep, Holy Babe, Thine angels watch around,
All bending low with folded wings, Before the incarnate King of kings, In reverent awe profound.
Sleep, Holy Babe, While I with Mary gaze
In joy upon that face awhile, Upon the loving infant smile, Which there divinely plays.
Sleep, Holy Babe, Ah, take Thy brief repose;
30
Too quickly will Thy slumbers break, And Thou to lengthened pains awake, That death alone shall close. Then must those hands Which now so fair I see, Those little pearly feet of Thine, So soft, so delicately fine, Be pierced and rent for me.
Then must that brow Its thorny crown receive;
That cheek, more lovely than the rose, Be drenched with blood, and marred with blows, That I thereby may live.
