Away In a Manger lyrics

[Verse 1]
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

[Verse 2]
The candles are glowing the baby awakes
The little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes
I love you Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle 'till morning is nigh

[Verse 3]
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask you to stay
Close by me forever and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in your tender care
And fit us for heaven to live with you there
