"December Lullaby" lyrics

"December Lullaby"

December lullaby
December lullaby
December lullaby
December lullaby

Don't you know Mary and child were sent away
Sent to spend the night in a bed of hay
And this was God's only son, yeah
Yet his birth was hard won

Darlin' the world'll often hurt you
But I pray no matter what, your dreams don't desert you

(December lullaby)
Baby restin' in my arms
(December lullaby)
Mama's gonna sing you a sleeping song
(December lullaby)
Something to help you dream on
(December lullaby)
Something to right the day's wrongs

Well the wise men came and carried gold
And those nights in the desert were very cold
Yet they traveled far, yeah
And on nothin' but a star

Baby, the world would tell them turn back
But with dreams of a savior, they stayed right on track

(December lullaby)
Baby restin' in my arms
(December lullaby)
Mama's gonna sing you a sleeping song
(December lullaby)
Something to help you dream on
(December lullaby)
Something to right the day's wrongs

(December lullaby)
La la la la la la
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la la
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la
(December lullaby)
Mama loves you, I love you, I love you
Mama loves you, I love you, I love you

Now when you dream, dream a world
Where love will bless the earth
And peace its paths adorn
And when you dream, dream a world
As holy and bright
As the manger was on Christmas night
(Dream on)

Baby restin' in my arms
Mama's gonna sing you a sleepin' song
Something about that blessed morn
Something about that baby born

(December lullaby)
Baby, baby, my pride and joy
(December lullaby)
Mama's gonna tell you 'bout a little boy
(December lullaby)
Sent to earth from high above
(December lullaby)
To teach us all about perfect love

(December lullaby)
La la la la la la
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la la
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la la

Something to help you dream on
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la la
Something to help you dream on
(December lullaby)
La la la la la la
Mama loves you, I love you, I love you
Mama loves you, I love you, I love you

(I love you, mama)
(I love you too)
