Chorus: Close your eyes December Child And dream a while my little son and moon May the stars be your crown And may the earth guide you round and round
Snuggle up and let me hold kiss Your baby breath in the dark and cold On a silent night long ago Another mother held her babe and told him
Chorus: Close your eyes December Child And dream a while my little son and moon May the stars be your crown And may the earth guide you round and round
They had come such a long long way Rest your little head on me and I'll tell you of A little King and His bed of hay It is remembered every Christmas day
Little one, little son All my life I've wished you welcome
Chorus: Close your eyes December Child And dream a while my little son and moon May the stars be your crown And may the earth guide you round and round December Child
