Lyrics: Still, Still, Still, The child’s eyes softly close. And Mary, breathless, draws Him weeping. To her heart made pure for keeping. Still, still, still, His bright eyes softly close. Sing, sing, sing, He hears and sweetly smiles. And kneeling, Joseph joins in chorus With angels bending o’er us. Sing, sing, sing, He hears and sweetly smiles. Sleep, sleep, O sleep. He breathes a sigh For soon He’ll wake from slumber, Bringing life and endless wonder, Sleep, sleep, sleep, He breaths a tender sigh. Sleep, Holy Jesus, sleep, sleep, sleep.
Notes: Austrian Carol; two part choir; scored for two keyboards (piano); string accompaniment is available on rental; there is an edition published in a book "Mack Willberg Carols" arranged for one keyboard (Oxford )
