Away in a manger no crib for his bed
The little lord jesus
Lay down his sweet head
The stars in the night sky looked down where he lay
The little lord jesus
Asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing
The poor baby wakes
But little lord jesus
No crying he makes
I love the lord jesus
Look down from on high
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 and live with thee there
