~ Go To Sleep My Jesus ~

Go to sleep My Jesus
Rest your pretty eyes
Baby angel watching You 
Standing by Your side

Gently she is rocking You 
Bringing you such peace
Singing you a lullaby 
Your Heart is hers to keep

Hear her gentle little voice
Singing tune of love
Rocking you so gently 
In your cradle up above

See the stars now Jesus 
They light your special place
You have a twinkling little star
That shines around your face

Close your eyes to gentle love 
Hear this angel's song
She loves you so with all her heart
Her gentleness belongs

See her eyes look down on you
In your crib of gold
Rocking gently as you sleep
Her story now is told

Quietly she turns around
To see if You're asleep
Little Baby Jesus looks at her
This smile He gives for keeps

Fills the sky with sparkling lights
On this Christmas night
Glory in the highest form
Love that shines so bright

Little Baby looking at
His angel singing song
Reaches out His Little Hand
Sweet miracle is born

Angel's hair is now adorned
With diamonds all around
Jesus smiling sweetly now
Christmas Angel has been crowned.
