He who heav'n created,
Lully, lully, lu!
In a lowly stall doth lie,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
He who reigns in heav'n most high,
Lully, lully, lu!
Joseph brought the swaddling clothes,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Swathed by Mary, Mother mild,
Lully, lully, lu.
In the manger lay the child,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Close beside the cattle there,
Lully, lully, lu!
Slept the Joy of all the earth,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Loveliness beyond compare,
Lully, lully, lu!
Lully, lully, lu!
In a lowly stall doth lie,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
He who reigns in heav'n most high,
Lully, lully, lu!
Joseph brought the swaddling clothes,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Swathed by Mary, Mother mild,
Lully, lully, lu.
In the manger lay the child,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Close beside the cattle there,
Lully, lully, lu!
Slept the Joy of all the earth,
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Loveliness beyond compare,
Lully, lully, lu!
