First Lullaby


On this silent holy night, as I hold this precious child
There are no words for this moment
Heaven and earth meet in my arms tonight.
He is mine and yet he is God's.
Sleep now, sleep my Son. Sleep in peace.

Years ahead will yet unfold, but tonight I'll keep you close.
Safe and warm in the manger.
Emmanuel sent here to save us.
Tomorrow waits, tonight rest your head.
And sleep now, sleep my Son. Sleep in peace.
-Hilary Weeks
