Hope to get some help with some old, old song lyrics. I sang this in
choir as a kid. The song is called "Sleep, Little Tiny King." All I
remember is part of the chorus:
Sleep, little tiny King, ?????????????????????????
Halelujah, the Angels sing. And peace on earth.
Good will to men.
Anybody? Thanks.

My father was an Air Force bandleader and the Singing Sergeants performed it back in the 1960s. I remember most of them. Should be fairly close...here goes:
Sleep little tiny king
Gift of God from heaven sent
Alleluia the angels sing
And peace on earth
Good will to men
The night was dark, the air was chill
The place a stable in Beth'lem town
Twas on that night so long ago
The son of God from heav'n came down
Chorus
To that stable from near and far
Bearing gifts and prayers they came
Until they knealt beneath the star
That far and wide his birth proclaimed
Chorus
The night again is dark and chill
We kneel in prayer 'neath the heavens bright
Our hearts inspired with mem'ries still
And the blessings of that holy night
