1207
Still, Still, Still
1. Still, still, still—
Jesus sleeps and all is still.
His mother, Mary, gently holds Him,
Softly in her arms enfolds Him.
Still, still, still—
Jesus sleeps and all is still.
2. Sleep, sleep, sleep—
See the blessed Baby sleep
While heav’nly choirs in jubilation
Sing God’s praise through all creation.
Sleep, sleep, sleep—
See the blessed Baby sleep.
3. Love, love, love—
Oh, how great the Father’s love!
He sent His Son, so meek and lowly,
That through Him we may be holy.
Love, love, love—
Oh, how great the Father’s love!
