Ella Fitzgerald - Sleep My Little Jesus songtekst
Je score:
Sleep, my little Jesus On Thy bed of hay While the shepherds homeward Journey on their way Mother is Thy shepherd And will her vigil keep Did the voices wake Thee? Oh sleep, my Jesus, sleep! Softly sleep, sweetly sleep My Jesus, sleep! Sleep, my little Jesus While Thou art my own! Ox and ass Thy neighbors Shalt Thou have a throne? Will they call me blessed? Shall I stand and weep? Be it far, Jehovah! Oh sleep, my Jesus, sleep! Softly sleep, sweetly sleep My Jesus, sleep! Sleep, my little Jesus Wonder-baby mine! Well the singing angels Greet Thee as divine Through my heart, as heaven Low the echoes sweep Of glory to Jehovah! Oh sleep, my Jesus, sleep! Softly sleep, sweetly sleep My Jesus, sleep!
