Jesu Parvule

Jesu Parvule Laying

On thy couch of hay

Greet we thee today

Sweet son of Mary

Be thy slumber deep

While fair Angels keep

Vigil o'er Thy sleep

Blest Babe of Mary

'Tis Thy joy to see

Kings on bended knee

Off'ring gifts to Thee

Sweet Son of Mary

But Thou may'st not know

What these gifts fore-show

Of they future woe

Blest Babe of Mary
