Christmas Lullaby

Lyrics

What lullaby shall we accord To such a Babe as He? Who set the pillars of the earth And brought mankind to be What cradle song will pacify The burden voiced in every cry To join His flock and for them die What lullaby will do? What offering befits a King Whose coming was foretold? Who came to suffer at our hands Yet loved us from of old Whom angels worship as the Christ A little Lamb, a sacrifice My earthly gains will scarce suffice What offering will do? What lullaby could we compare To heaven's serenade? As legions of the angelic hosts Thе proclamation made "For unto you is born this day The One now comе to make a way" And so my soul can only praise And offer Him my heart What lullaby, what lullaby What lullaby will do?
