Away in a manger
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus
Lay down his sweet head
The stars in the bright sky
Look down where he lay
But little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing
And the poor 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
'Till morning is nigh, oh
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 fit us for heaven
To live with thee there
And fit us for heaven
To live with thee there
Away in a manger
