Away In A Manger

Traditional c1887

Away in a manger, [D]

no crib for a bed [G D]

The little Lord Jesus [A7]

lay down his sweet head [G D]

The stars in the sky [D]

look down where he lay [G D]

The little Lord Jesus [A7 D]

asleep on the hay [Em A7 D]

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

'til 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 Thee there.
