1. Away in a manger,No crib for his bed,The little Lord JesusLay down his wee head;The stars in the heavensLooked down where he lay.The little Lord JesusA sleep on the hay.
Asleep, (Asleep,) asleep, (asleep,)asleep, The Savior in a stall!Asleep, (asleep,) asleep, (asleep,)asleep, The Lord of all.
2. The cattle were lowing;—The poor baby wakes;But little Lord Jesus,No crying he makes.I love thee Lord Jesus,Look down from the sky,And stay by my sideuntil morning is nigh.
Asleep, (Asleep,) asleep, (asleep,)asleep, The Savior in a stall!Asleep, (asleep,) asleep, (asleep,)asleep, The Lord of all.
3. 3.Be near me Lord Jesus;I ask thee to stayClose by me forever,And love me, I pray;Bless all the dear childrenIn thy tender care;And take us to heaven,To live with thee there.
Asleep, (Asleep,) asleep, (asleep,)asleep, The Savior in a stall!Asleep, (asleep,) asleep, (asleep,)asleep, The Lord of all.
