O Sleep Now Holy Baby Lyrics

1. Oh, sleep now, holy baby,
With your head against my breast:
Meanwhile the pants of my sorrow
Are soothed and put to rest.

[Refrain:]
A la ru, a la me,
Al la ru, a la me,
Al la ru, a la me,
Al la ru, a la me,

2. You need not fear King Herod,
He will bring no harm to you;
So rest in the arms of your mother
Who sings you a la ru. [Refrain]
