Away In a Manger

02

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed

The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head

The stars in the sky looked down where He lay

The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes

But the little Lord Jesus; No crying He makes

I love thee, Lord Jesus; Look down from the sky

And stay by my cradle ‘til morning is nigh

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.
