Lyrics

1. O tiny babe, sleep beside your mother on this night.
You are born to all the world
to shine your holy light.
Do we know the strength you have,
even though so small?
Your tiny hands will hold the world
and bring peace to all.

Refrain
O holy child, keep us near your flame tonight,
and lift this weary world
with your love so bright.
Your joy surrounds us now,
we feel your tender might:
keep us safe and close to you
with your love so bright.

2. On this night, angels sing
in joyous praise to you:
"You were born to be our king
and make our hearts anew!"
Your love has come to us, you've opened ev'ry door,
and with your birth the darkness is gone forevermore!

3, Close to Mary now is the beating of your heart,
a heart we know that holds our love
and can't be torn apart.
Close your eyes in slumber, you our newborn king,
brought to us to save our souls that will forever sing:

4. With your coming to us, we shall now be strong.
The world has waited for this peace, waited for so long.
So, with all the angels
we rejoice and sing your praise.
We know that you will guide us; you will light all our days!
