O little one, take your rest
Deeply sleep in the arms
Of the holy Lord
May the angels
Watch over you in the night
O little one, time to rest
It's time to leave
Busyness behind
May the angels
Watch over you in the night
O tired one, may the peace
Of the night ready you
For the day ahead
May the angels
Watch over you in the night
O joyful one, let your soul
Be glad in the Lord
As I sing you to sleep
May the angels
Watch over you in the night
