Hush little baby don?t you cry
Heaven?s watching out for you tonight
Watching you tonight
Hush little baby don?t you fret
Nothing?s gonna hurt you
Not even death
No not even death
Lullaby
Let heaven and angels sing for you tonight
For you tonight
This is our lullaby
Peace on earth has finally arrived
Hush now Mary don?t be afraid
Baby done come to clear the way
Come to clear the way
Hush now Joseph, don?t you fuss
Soon this child gonna carry us
Gonna carry us
Lullaby
Let heaven and angels sing for you tonight
For you tonight
This is our lullaby
Peace on earth has finally arrived
The day will come soon enough
When you are singing over us
But tonight sleep in heavenly peace
And we?ll be the ones to sing
Lullaby
Let heaven and angels sing for you tonight
For you tonight
This is our lullaby
Peace on earth has finally arrived
Hush little baby don?t you cry
Heaven?s watching out for you tonight
Watching you tonight

MercyMe's 'Lullaby' is a gentle Christmas song that reimagines the nativity story as a soothing lullaby for the infant Jesus. The lyrics speak comfort to Mary and Joseph, reassuring them that heaven watches over the baby who has come to bring peace on earth. The song acknowledges the future weight of Christ's mission but invites a moment of rest and heavenly peace. It draws on the familiar imagery of the first Christmas, emphasizing God's care and the arrival of peace through the newborn King.
