Away In A Manger 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 looked down where He lay The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay Verse 2 The cattle are lowing the baby awakes But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes I love Thee 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 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 Thee there © Public Domain | James Ramsey Murray / John Thomas McFarland / Martin Luther | CCLI License No. 412202
