Notes
This one was traditionally sung by only the ladies of the choir. I always found it tender and beautiful.
Lyrics
[Verse]
Lullaby, Jesus, O cease from your crying,
Here on Your Mother's warm breast softly lying.
[Chorus]
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
[Verse]
See how the world lies in sorrow and sadness;
Give us Your blessing, O bring Heaven's gladness!
[Chorus]
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
[Verse]
See how the world lies in sorrow and sadness;
Give us Your blessing, O bring Heaven's gladness!
[Chorus]
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
[Outro]
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
Lullaby, Jesus, O sleep now, my treasure
Mother is Watching with love none can measure.
