AWAY IN A MANGER

 

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

Asleep on the hay

 

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

To live with Thee there

 

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

Asleep on the hay…
