Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Away in a manger
No crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
[Verse 2]
The stars in the Heavens
Looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay
[Verse 3]
The cattle are lowing
The poor Baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes
[Verse 4]
I love Thee, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle
Till morning is nigh
[Verse 5]
Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
[Verse 6]
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care
And take us to heaven
To live with Thee there
[Verse 7]
Away in a manger
No crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
[Verse 8]
The stars in the Heavens
Looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay
