Sleep, Holy Babe,Thine angels watch around;All bending low with folded wingsBefore th’Incarnate King of kings,In rev’rent awe profound. Sleep, Holy Babe,While I with Mary gazeIn joy upon Thy face awhile,Upon the loving Infant smile,Which there divinely plays.Sleep, Holy Babe,O take Thy brief repose!Too quickly will Thy slumbers break,And Thou to lengthen’d pains awake,That death alone shall close.
