Lyrics
- Little Jesus, sweetly sleep, do not stir
- We will lend a coat of fur
- We will rock you, rock you, rock you
- We will rock you, rock you, rock you
- See the fur to keep you warm
- Snugly round your tiny form.
- Mary's little baby, sleep, sweetly sleep
- Sleep in comfort, slumber deep
- We will rock you, rock you, rock you
- We will rock you, rock you, rock you
- We will serve you all we can
- Darling, darling little man.
