D                    D          G
Away in a manger, No crib for a bed,
       G         D           Em           A
The little Lord Jesus, Lay down his sweet head.
      D                              D             G
The stars in the bright sky, Looked down where he lay
     G           D      A7            D
The little Lord Jesus, Asleep on the hay.

D                        D       G
The cattle a-lowing, the baby awakes;
       G         D         Em         A
But little Lord Jesus, No crying he makes.
      D                              D             G
I love thee, Lord Jesus, Look down from the sky,
     G            D            A7          D
And stay by my side, until morning is nigh.

D                         D         G
Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay,
      G         D        Em         A
Close by me forever, and love me I pray.
      D                         D           G
Bless all the dear children, in thy tender care,
     G           D         A7            D
And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
