A Way in a Manger

Away In A MangerChristmas Carol

Away in a manger,no crib for His bed,The little Lord Jesuslaid down His sweet head;The stars in the heavenslooked down where He lay,The little Lord Jesusasleep on the hay.The cattle are lowing,the poor Baby wakes,But little Lord Jesus,no crying He makes.I love Thee, Lord Jesus;look down from the skyAnd stay by my cradletill morning is nigh.Be near me, Lord Jesus;I ask Thee to stayClose by me foreverand love me I pray!Bless all the dear childrenin Thy tender care,And fit us for Heavento live with Thee there.Away in a manger,no crib for His bed,The little Lord Jesuslaid down His sweet head;The stars in the heavenslooked down where He lay,The little Lord Jesusasleep on the hay.
