Sleep, Sleep, Sleep, My Little Child

AO Folksong - DECEMBER 2023
Sleep, Sleep, Sleep, My Little Child
Here betwixt ass and oxen mild,
Sleep, sleep, sleep my little child.
Angels from on high
Hover in the sky,
Keeping watch above
The incarnate God of love.
Here in the crib, secure from harm,
Sleep, sleep in your mother's arms.
Angels from on high
Hover in the sky,
Keeping watch above
The incarnate God of love.
Here betwixt rose and lily white,
Sleep, sleep, sleep my son tonight.
Angels from on high
Hover in the sky,
Keeping watch above
The incarnate God of love.
On this fair night of holy joy,
Sleep, sleep, sleep, my little boy.
Angels from on high
Hover in the sky,
Keeping watch above
The incarnate God of love.

Thanks for watching, and the merriest of Christmases to you and yours!
