2. [1] Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid
down His sweet head.
The stars in the bright sky
looked down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

3. [2] The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
#365 - Away in a Manger
[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 side until morning is nigh.

4. Jesus; I ask Thee to stay Close by me forever and love me, I pray.
#365 - Away in a Manger
[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 take us to heaven
to live with Thee there.
