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

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes
I love you, Lord Jesus; look down from the sky
And stay by my side until morning is nigh

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