Away
in a Manger
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. The stars in
the sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep
in the hay.
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky And stay by
my cradle til morning is nigh.
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay Close by me forever,
and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care, And take us
to heaven, to live with Thee there.
