Sleep, baby, sleep! Our cottage vale is deep; The little lamb is on the green, With woolly fleece so soft and clean. Sleep, baby, sleep! Sleep, baby, sleep! Down where the woodbines creep; Be always like the lamb so mild, A kind and sweet and gentle child. Sleep, baby, sleep! Sleep, baby, sleep! Thy rest shall angels keep, While on the grass the lambs shall feed, And never suffer want nor need.
