Lyrics

Cradle in Bethlehem

[Verse 1]

Sing sweet and low a lullaby

'Til angels say amen

A mother tonight is rocking

A cradle in Bethlehem

[Verse 2]

While wise men follow through the dark

A star that beckons them

A mother tonight is rocking

A cradle in Bethlehem

[Verse 3]

A little Child will lead them

The prophet said of old

In storm and tempest, heed Him

Until the bell is tolled

[Verse 4]

Sing sweet and low a lullaby

'Til angels say amen

A mother tonight is rocking

A cradle in Bethlehem

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

A little Child will lead them

The prophet said of old

In storm and tempest, heed Him

Until the bell is tolled

[Verse 4]

Sing, oh, sing sweet and low a lullaby

'Til angels say amen

A mother tonight is rocking

A cradle in Bethlehem

[Outro]

A cradle in Bethlehem

A cradle in Bethlehem

Cradle in Bethlehem
