Text : E. J. Falconer
Oh! hush Thee, oh! hush Thee, my Baby so small, The ass hath her crib and the ox hath his stall, They shelter Thee, Baby, from Heaven a-bove, Oh! hush Thee, oh! hush Thee, my Baby, my love.
Oh! hush Thee, oh! hush Thee, my Baby so small, Dim is the light from the lamp on the wall, Bright in the night sky shineth a star, Lead-ing the Kings who come from afar.
Oh! hush Thee, oh! hush Thee, my Baby so small, Jos-eph is spread-ing the straw in the stall, Soon wilt Thou sleep in the nook of my arm Safe from all trouble and danger and harm.
