<p>Hush, my dear, lie still and slumber,<br>
Holy angels guard thy bed,<br>
Heav&#8217;nly blessings without number,<br>
Gently falling on they head.<br>
How much better thou&#8217;rt attended,<br>
Than the Son of God could be,<br>
When from heaven He descended,<br>
And became a child like thee!</p>
<p>Soft and easy is thy cradle,<br>
Coarse and hard thy Savior lay:<br>
When His birthplace was a stable,<br>
And His softest bed was hay.<br>
Oh, to tell the wondrous story,<br>
How His foes abused their King;<br>
How they killed the Lord of glory,<br>
Makes me angry while I sing.</p>
<p>Hush, my child, I did not chide thee,<br>
Though my song may seem so hard;<br>
&#8217;Tis thy mother sits beside thee,<br>
And her arms shall be thy guard.<br>
May&#8217;st thou learn to know and fear Him,<br>
Love and serve Him all thy days;<br>
Then to dwell forever near Him,<br>
Tell His love and sing His praise.</p>
