lyrics

"Joseph, Dearest Joseph mine,
Help me cradle the Child divine.

God reward thee and all that’s thine,

In paradise," so prays the mother Mary.

He came among us at Christmastide,
At Christmastide, in Bethlehem;
Men shall bring Him from far and wide
Love’s diadem: Jesus, Jesus,
Lo, He comes, and loves, and saves, and frees us!

"Gladly dear one, Lady mine

Help I cradle this Child of thine."

"God’s own light on us both shall shine,

In paradise," as prays the mother Mary.

All shall come and bow the knee,

Wise and happy their souls shall be.

Loving such a divinity as all may see

In Jesus Son of Mary.

Sweet and lovely little one,

Thou princely, beautiful, God's own Son,

Without Thee all of us were undone;

Our love is won by Thine, O Son of Mary.
