Lyrics
Thou must in thy lowly dwelling
The humble crib and stable bear
May all mortal pains extend
And death doth thee aught to share
Loving father, loving mother
Shelter thee with tender care
Loving father, loving mother
Shelter thee with tender care
Shelter thee with tender care
Blessed Jesus, we implore thee
With humble love and holy fear
In the land that lies before thee
Forget not us who linger here
May the shepherd's lowly calling
Ever to thy heart be dear
May the shepherd's lowly calling
Ever to thy heart be dear
Ever to thy heart be dear
Blessed are ye beyond all measure
For have with father, mother mild
Guard ye well your heavenly treasure
The Prince of Peace, the holy child
God go with you, God protect you
Guide you safely through the wild
God go with you, God protect you
Guide you safely through the wild
Guide you safely through the wild
