Songtexte Sleep, My Little Jesus (Remastered) - Ella Fitzgerald

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
Wonder-baby mine
Well, the singing angels greet Thee as divine

Though my heart, as heaven
Lo the echoes sweep of glory to Jehovah
Oh sleep, my Jesus, sleep
Softly sleep, sweetly sleep
My Jesus, sleep
