Alleluia (A Christmas Lullaby)

All-le-lu-ia
starlight is falling, a baby is sleeping
over the hillside, the shadows are deepening
shadows are deepening
beautiful angels, above us are winging
lullays and alleluias, they're singing
lully lullay, thou little tiny child
by by lully lullay alleluia
lully lullay, thou little tiny child
by by lully lullay

softly he slumbers as twilight enfolds him
gentle and loving the young mother holds him
lovingly holds him
with echoes of heavenly melodies ringing
lullays and alleluias, she's singing
lully lullay, thou little tiny child
by by lully, lullay alleluia
lully lullay, thou little tiny child by by lully lullay
