Softly, gently, Mary is singing,
holding her little one safe in her arms.
Baby Jesus smiles at his mother,
eyes full of wonder, heart full of love.
Slumber now, my sweet little baby,
eyes full of wonder, heart full of love.

Standing silently, Joseph is watching,
guarding carefully mother and child.
"I'll watch over you, Mary and Jesus,
eyes full of wonder, heart full of love."
Slumber now, my sweet little baby,
eyes full of wonder, heart full of love.

Gentle creatures gather around him,
all joining in a sweet lullaby.
God has blessed them with his presence,
eyes full of wonder, heart full of love.
Slumber now, my sweet little baby,
eyes full of wonder, heart full of love.
