Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
D7 C G
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head.
G C G
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay,
D7 G Am D7 G
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.
G C G
The cattle are lowing, the poor Baby awakes,
D7 C G
But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.
G C G
I love Thee, Lord Jesus; look down from the sky,
D7 G Am D7 G
And stay by my cradle 'til morning is nigh.
G C G
Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay
D7 C G
Close by me forever and love me, I pray.
G C G
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care,
D7 G Am D7 G
And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there.
