Baby boy, baby boy, don't you weep
Baby boy, baby boy, don't you weep
You will be our savior, but until then
Go to sleep
Young man, young man, I'll watch over you
Young man, young man, I'll watch over you
While you lead our people, to the promised land
I will shelter you
Baby boy (Young man) Baby boy (Young man)
Don't you weep (I will watch over you)

Don't you weep (I will watch over you)
You will be (You will be) Our savior
But until then go to sleep

When you leave this place, to do what you must
I will always love you
