Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
A7 G D
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head.
G D
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay,
G D A7 D
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.
D G D
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
A7 G D
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
G D
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
G D A7 D
And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh.
D G D
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
A7 G D
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray
G D
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
G D A7 D
And take us to heaven, to live with Thee there.
