Away in a Manger
Lyrics
Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes
The little Lord Jesus no crying He makes
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down the from sky
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me for forever and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us to heaven to live with Thee there
