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.
