The Cradle Song Songtext

So goodnight now once more
With roses roofed o‘er
All tied up with boughs
Slip under the clothes
When the morning shall break
Please the Lord, I will wake
When the morning shall break,
Please the Lord, I will wake...

Good night then once more
By angels watched o'er
In dreams thou shall see
A fair christmas tree
Go to sleep, close thine eyes
Thou shall see paradise
Go to sleep, close thine eyes
Thou shall see paradise...

Go to sleep, close your eyes
Thou shall see paradise...!
