O little one, take your rest Deeply sleep in the arms Of the holy Lord May the angels Watch over you in the night O little one, time to rest It's time to leave Busyness behind May the angels Watch over you in the night O tired one, may the peace Of the night ready you For the day ahead May the angels Watch over you in the night O joyful one, let your soul Be glad in the Lord As I sing you to sleep May the angels Watch over you in the night
