W:
W:1. Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
W:The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head.
W:The stars in the sky looked down where he lay,
W:The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay.
W:
W:2. The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
W:But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
W:I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
W:And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh.
W:
W:3. Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
W:Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
W:Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
W:And take us to heaven, to live with Thee there
