A SLUMBER SONG OF THE MADONNA (Christmas)
Lyrics: Alfred Noyes - Music: Michael Head


Sleep, little baby, I love thee;
Sleep, little king, I am bending above thee!
  How shall I know what to sing
Here in my arms as I swing thee to sleep?
  Hushaby low,
  Rockaby so.
Kings may have wonderful jewels to bring,
Mother has only a kiss for her king!
Why should my singing so make me to weep?
Only I know that I love thee, I love thee,
  Love thee, my little one, sleep.
