Song of the Crib

Joseph dearest, Joseph mine,

Help me cradle the child divine;

God reward thee and all that's thine in Paradise,

So prays the mother Mary. 

He came among us at Christmas tide,

At Christmas tide, in Bethlehem;

Men shall bring him from far and wide

Love's diadem:

Jesus, Jesus, 

Lo, he comes, and loves, and saves and frees us.
