GCG
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
D7CG
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head.
GCG
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay,
D7GAmD7G
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.
GCG
The cattle are lowing, the poor Baby awakes,
D7CG
But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.
GCG
I love Thee, Lord Jesus; look down from the sky,
D7GAmD7G
And stay by my cradle 'til morning is nigh.
GCG
Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay
D7CG
Close by me forever and love me, I pray.
GCG
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care,
D7GAmD7G
And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there.
