Drift away, my bonny child
Sleep and sweetly dream the while
Fear not, for God watcheth o'er thee,
Fear not, for God loveth thee.
Hush now, baby, if thou wakest
Lest the king thy life he takest
Thou wert born to set thy people free
Thou wert born to set Israel free.
Dost thou know a babe there will be
Who will from Herod's soldiers flee?
That child shall set our people free,
That child shall set all men free.
