Brahms' Lullaby

Lullaby and good night

You're your mother's delight

Shining angels beside

My darling abide

Soft and warm is your bed,

Close your eyes, rest your head

Soft and warm is your bed,

Close your eyes, and rest your head

When I sleep,

I count sheep

as I stare at the ceiling

There go three sheep, there go four

soon you'll hear me start to snore

Mommy, help me count to twenty

that will surely be plenty

Mommy, help me count to twenty

that will surely be plenty

Lullaby, say goodnight

Little child, sleep tight

Snuggle softly in your bed

you can rest your sleepy head

You are precious, my dear

know that God holds you near

You are precious, my dear

know that God holds you near

You are precious, my dear

know that God

holds you near
