English text
1. Lo, the infant Jesus sus, in peaceful slumber lay.
Sheltered in a manger, this blessed Christmas day.
Sleep, sleep babe so tender,
True love let us render.
Lord grant in its splendor Thy peace to all mankind.
2. Joyous songs of angels, brought shepherds to the sight.
Wise men came with treasures, His star their guiding light.
Sleep…
3. Grant O Mother Mary, Thy love our hearts may share,
These our gifts though humble, to Christ thy child we bear.
Sleep…
