Away in a Manger Lyrics
1. Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down
His sweet head.
The stars in the bright sky
looked down where He lay.
2. The little Lord Jesus asleep on 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 bed side until morning is nigh.
3. 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.
