Away In a Manger

D
Away in a manger,
   G          D
no crib for a bed
    A7
The little Lord Jesus
    G              D
lay down his sweet head
    D
The stars in the bright sky
     G             D
look down where he lay
    A7          D
The little Lord Jesus
 Em       A7  D
asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
I love the Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle 'till morning is nigh

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 fit us for heaven to live with the there
