On the hay, in the bulls' trough
Sleeps an innocent child
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
In the hems of the beloved mother
Sleeps the son of God.
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
In the midst of lilies and roses
Sleeps the Lord of the people
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
At the cross beside a robber
Sleeps the purest sacrifice
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
The path of a flock of angels
Soon leads to him
To marvel at the greatest love
