Away in a Manger
Public Domain
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lays 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 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 fit us for heaven to live with thee there
To live with thee there
