Starlight, moonbeams,
Fall where He lies.
Angels, Guardians,
Watch when He cries.
This Babe, who we see lying here
Comes from a distant glorious sphere!
A God from heaven lies within her arms,
A God from heaven lies within her arms.
Angels, Guardians, keep Him from harm.

Joseph, Mary,
Know who you hold.
Guide Him, trust Him,
When hearts grow cold.
This Child who sleeps, this tiny King
Has caused the morning stars to sing!
And all the sons of God to shout for joy,
And all the sons of God to shout for joy.
Joseph, Mary, trust your sweet boy.

Sadness, sorrow,
Will follow this Lamb.
But we know, He is,
The Great I Am.
All will confess His Holy name,
The sun shall hide its face in shame.
In clouds of pow'r and might He will return.
In clouds of pow'r and might He will return.
And we know, He is, The Great I Am.

Angels, Guardians, keep Him from harm.
