Away in a manger, no crib for His bed   The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head   The stars in the Heavens looked down where He lay   The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay      The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes   But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes   I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky   And stay by my credo till 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 my tender care   And take us to Heaven to live with Thee there      Please, take us to Heaven to live with Thee there
