Away in a Manger

Away in a manger
No crib for Her bed
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head

The stars in the bright sky
Looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay

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 take us to Heaven
To live with Thee there

The cattle are lowing
The poor Baby awakes, oh
But little Lord Jesus
No crying, He makes

I love Thee, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky, ooh
And stay by my side (stay by my side)
'Til 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 take us to heaven
To live with Thee there

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 take us to heaven
To live with Thee there

To live with Thee there
To live with Thee there
