¶Lyrics / Text

Sleep, gentle babe, your mother watches o’er you, Soft sleeps the moonbeam on your cradle bed; Sleep while the storms of life are yet before you, Soft lies the pillow ’neath your drowsy head. No thoughts of wrong your balmy slumbers breaking; No rude alarm, no care to vex your waking, Sleep sound and deep, in perfect peace reposing; Sleep, gentle babe, your pretty eyelids closing.
