peter warlock - bethlehem down lyrics

Loading...

when he is king we will give him the kings’ gifts
myrrh for its sweetness, and gold for a crown
beautiful robes’, said the young girl to joseph
fair with her first+born on bethlehem down

bethlehem down is full of the starlight
winds for the spices, and stars for the gold
mary for sleep, and for lullaby music
songs of a shepherd by bethlehem fold

when he is king they will clothe him in grave+sheets
myrrh for embalming, and wood for a crown
he that lies now in the white arms of mary
sleeping so lightly on bethlehem down

here he has peace and a short while for dreaming
close+huddled oxen to keep him from cold
mary for love, and for lullaby music
songs of a shepherd by bethlehem fold
