Christleins Wiegenlied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lasst uns das Kindlein wiegen,
das Herz zum Kripplein biegen!
Lasst uns im Geist erfreuen,
das Kindlein benedeien!
O Jesulein süß, o Jesulein süß.

Lasst uns dem Kindlein neigen,
um Lieb' und Dienst erzeigen!
Lasst uns doch jubilieren
und geistlich triumphieren!
O Jesulein süß, o Jesulein süß.

Lasst unsre Stimmlein schallen,
es wird dem Kindlein g'fallen.
Lasst ihm ein Freudlein machen,
das Kindlein wird eins lachen.
O Jesulein süß, o Jesulein süß.
