Away in a manger, no crib for His 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
The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes
I love Thee, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side,
'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 to heaven to live with Thee there
