    Angels sing a lullaby to Mary and the baby Jesus in Bethlehem, where wise men have journeyed to greet the new Messiah. Though Jesus bears no earthly riches or crown as king, he is attended by shepherds as courtiers and the poor as his people, with love as his scepter. The poem praises Jesus and his mother Mary, who bore the Savior by God's grace.

    CHRISTMAS LULLABY (JOHN RUTTER)

    Clear in the darkness a light shines in Bethlehem


    Angels are singing, their sound fills the air.
    Wise men have journeyed to greet their Messiah;
    But only a mother and baby lie there.

    'Ave Maria, ave Maria'


    Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing.
    'Ave Maria, ave Maria,
    Maiden, and mother of Jesus our King'.

    Where are his courtiers, and who are his people?


    Why does he bear neither scepter nor crown?
    Shepherds his courtiers, the poor for his people,
    With peace as his scepter and love for his crown.

    'Ave Maria, ave Maria':


    Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing.
    'Ave Maria, ave Maria,
    Maiden, and mother of Jesus our King'.

    What though your treasures are not gold or incense?


    Lay them before him with hearts full of love.
    Praise to the Christ child, and praise to his mother
    Who bore us a Saviour by grace from above.

    'Ave Maria, ave Maria':


    Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing.
    'Ave Maria, ave Maria,
    Maiden, and mother of Jesus our King'.
