Sleep quietly my Jesus
Now close your dear eyes
Above you shine Gods countless stars
Like diamonds in the sky
Beside your bed an angel crew
With cattle have fed
Your mother stands in watchful prayer
And strokes your little head
The shepards leave their flocks uncon
They bring you my love
While angels of our father God
Rejoice in song above
From far away the wise men three
Their treasures they bring
My whole wide world before you kneel'd
My Jesus little king
Sleep quietly my Jesus
Now close your dear eyes
Above you shine Gods countless stars
Like diamonds in the sky
Beside your bed an angel crew
With cattle have fed
Your mother stands in watchful prayer
And strokes your little head
Sleep quietly my Jesus
Now close your dear eyes
Above you shine Gods countless stars
Like diamonds in the sky
Beside your bed an angel crew
With cattle have fed
Your mother stands in watchful prayer
And strokes your little head
The shepards leave their flocks uncon
They bring you my love
While angels of our father God
Rejoice in song above
From far away the wise men three
Their treasures they bring
My whole wide world before you kneel'd
My Jesus little king
Sleep quietly my Jesus
Now close your dear eyes
Above you shine Gods countless stars
Like diamonds in the sky
Beside your bed an angel crew
With cattle have fed
Your mother stands in watchful prayer
And strokes your little head
