Lyrics for Away In A Manger

Away in a manger, No crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus Laid down his sweet head The stars in the sky Looked down where he lay 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 thee, Lord Jesus; Look down from the sky And stay by my cradle Until morning is night Be near me, be near me, Lord Jesus, Lord Jesus, I ask you to stay Close by me, close by me Forever, Forever, And love me, I pray And love me, I pray And love me, I pray
