Sleeping Baby from Art.com

Sleep, little baby of mine;

Dear little heart, be at rest,

For Jesus, like you,

Was a baby once, too,

And slept on His own mother’s breast.

Shut little sleepy blue eyes,

Night and the darkness are near –

But Jesus looks down

Through the shadows that frown,

And baby has nothing to fear.

Sleep, little baby of mine,

Soft on your pillow so white;

Jesus is here

To watch over you, dear,

And nothing can harm you tonight.

Oh, little darling of mine,

What can you know of the bliss,

The comfort I keep,

Awake and asleep,

Because I am certain of this.
