VOCES8: Lully, Lulla, Lullay - Philip Stopford

VOCES8 sings Philip Stopford’s setting of ’Lully, Lulla, Lullay’ in St Stephen’s Walbrook Church, London. Lully, lulla, lully lulla By by, lully lullay Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child By by, lully lullay O sisters too, How may we do For to preserve this day This poor youngling, For whom we sing, By by, lully lullay? Lully, lulla, lully lulla By by, lully lullay Lully, lulla thou little tiny child By by, lully lullay Herod, the king, In his raging, Charged he hath this day His men of might, In his own sight, All young children to slay. Lully, lulla, lully lulla By by, lully lullay Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child By by, lully lullay That woe is me, Poor child for thee! And ever morn and day, For thy parting Neither say nor sing By by, lully lullay! Lully, lulla, lully lulla By by, lully lullay Lully, lulla, thou little tiny child By by, lully lullay
