Cradle Song 歌詞

Cradle Song - Maddy Prior/The Carnival Band

Hush my dear lie still and lumber

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 and payment

All thy wants are well supplied

 

How much better thou art 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 the Saviour lay

 

When his birthplace was a stable

And his softest bed was hay

 

Lo he slumbers in his manger

Where the horned oxen fed

 

Peace my darling here's no danger

Here's no ox anear thy bed

 

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
