- 1.
- Away upon the mountain top,
- The breezes blow mild,
- Where, Mary, sweet mother dear,
- Is rock-ing her child.
- She cradles Him so tenderly,
- In arms snowy white,
- Enfolds Him in her loving care
- And sings through the night:
- Diri diri, halelujah,
- Halelujah, halelujah!
- 2.
- The Baby wakes from slumber deep,
- And looks to the sky.
- Great peace shall come to all the earth
- Thru God's gift from on high.
- The angels sing this holy night,
- "All praise to the King,
- The Prince of Peace, the Son of God,
- His birth we do sing."
- Diri diri, halelujah,
- Halelujah, halelujah!
