Lyrics
Sleep, precious child of mine, Sleep holy child divine.
Gift of heaven in my arms, I'll keep you safe and warm;
my heart is filled with wonder.
Sleep, precious child of mine, sleep, holy child divine.
To my heart from heaven's throne; I'll raise you as my own,
and you will be my Savior and my Son.
Jesus, down through the ages, millions of people will love you;
but only God the Father could love you as much as I do.
So, sleep, precious child of mine, Sleep, holy child divine,
All too soon you will be grown, so while you're ours alone,
we worship you, our Saviour and our Son.
Sleep, precious child of mine.
