1. Away in a manger,No crib for his bed,The little Lord JesusLaid down his wee head.The stars in the heavensLooked down where he lay,The little Lord Jesus,Asleep on the hay.
2. The cattle are 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.
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 heavento live with thee there.
