Carol of the Children
One for the star in the sky over Bethlehem
Two for the hands that will rock him to sleep
Three for the kings bringing gold, bringing myrrh, bringing incense
Four for the angels that watch over his bedside
Blue for the robe of the sweet Virgin Mary
White for the dawn of the first Christmas Day
Red for the blood that he shed for us all on Good Friday
Black for the tomb where he rested till Easter
Lullaby see Jesus asleep
Angels and shepherds their watch on him keep
Lullaby he soon will awake
For the oxen are stirring and morning will break.
One for the star in the sky over Bethlehem;
Two for the hands that will rock him to sleep;
Three for the kings bringing gold, bringing myrrh, bringing incense;
Four for the angels that watch over his bedside.
And one for the heart
one for the heart
one for the heart
that I give as my off'ring to Jesus.
Two for the hands that will rock him to sleep
Three for the kings bringing gold, bringing myrrh, bringing incense
Four for the angels that watch over his bedside
Blue for the robe of the sweet Virgin Mary
White for the dawn of the first Christmas Day
Red for the blood that he shed for us all on Good Friday
Black for the tomb where he rested till Easter
Lullaby see Jesus asleep
Angels and shepherds their watch on him keep
Lullaby he soon will awake
For the oxen are stirring and morning will break.
One for the star in the sky over Bethlehem;
Two for the hands that will rock him to sleep;
Three for the kings bringing gold, bringing myrrh, bringing incense;
Four for the angels that watch over his bedside.
And one for the heart
one for the heart
one for the heart
that I give as my off'ring to Jesus.
