THE SILVER STARS ARE IN THE SKY	

WORDS BY JOHN WHEELER
MUSIC BY WILLIAM G. JAMES


KEY Eb

 6  -5b  5    -4   6  -5b 5   -4
The sil-ver stars are in the sky,

 5   4   -4   5    6 -6b -6b  6 
The red-gold moon is rid-ing high,

6   -5b  5  -4   4   -4   4
O, sleep my lit-tle one sleep!

 4    4   4  4  4  -5b   -4     4
Once long a-go, a-gainst her breast,

4 4   4    -4    4  -3b  3  3
A mo-ther hush’d a babe to rest,

 -4 -5b  5    -4    6  -5b   4  -4
Who was the Prince of Heav'n a-bove,

 3   -3b  -3  4  -3b  3   -5b  3
The Lord  of gen-tle-ness and love.

-4  -5b   -4  -4  4  -4    4
O, sleep, my lit-tle one sleep!

 3   4   -5b  -5b -4  6    -5b   5   
The boo-book calls a-cross the night,

 5    4    -4     5  -4   5 -6b  -6b 
The brown moths flut-ter in the light,

6   -5b  5  -4   4   -4   4
O, sleep my lit-tle one sleep!

 4   4   4  -4  -5b    5  4 -4 
In Beth-le-hem long, long a-go,

  4    4    4   4   -4     -6b    6   -5b 
When roads and pad-docks gleam'd with snow;

6   -5b   5   -4     6    4   -5b -4 
On this same night, that moth-er mild,

   6    4 -4   -6    4   -6b   -5b
Lull'd in-to dreams her royal child.

-4    -5b   5  -4  4   -4    4
So, sleep, my lit-tle one, sleep! 

 5  -4  4   -4    4     -3b
my lit-tle one, sleep! Sleep!


ENJOY!!!
