1. Still, still, still,weil’s Kindlein schlafen will.Hört sanft und leis Maria singen,ihre große Lieb ihm bringen.Still, still, still,weil’s Kindlein schlafen will.
2. Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf,mein liebes Kindlein schlaf.Die Engel lieblich musizieren,hoch im Himmel jubilieren.Schlaf, schlaf, schlaf,mein liebes Kindlein schlaf!
3. Groß, groß, groß,die Lieb ist übergroß.Gott hat den Himmelsthron verlassen,wird nun gehen auf den Straßen.Groß, groß, groß,die Lieb ist übergroß.

1. Still, still, still—Jesus sleeps and all is still.His mother, Mary, gently holds Him,Softly in her arms enfolds Him.Still, still, still—Jesus sleeps and all is still.
2. Sleep, sleep, sleep—See the blessed Baby sleepWhile heav’nly choirs in jubilationSing God’s praise through all creation.Sleep, sleep, sleep—See the blessed Baby sleep.
3. Love, love, love—Oh, how great the Father’s love!He sent His Son, so meek and lowly,That through Him we may be holy.Love, love, love—Oh, how great the Father’s love!
