Away in a Manger [*] Lyrics
Away in a manger
No crib for a 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 cradle
Till 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 take us to Heaven
To live with Thee there
Away in a manger
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
Looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay
The Baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes
Look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle
Till morning is nigh
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me, I pray
In Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven
To live with Thee there
