AWAY IN A MANGER

Traditional, Christmas carol

A-[C]-way in a manger, no [F] crib for a [C] bed
The [G] little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet [C] head
The [C] stars in the bright sky looked [F] down where He [C] lay
The [G] little [C] Lord Jesus a-[G]-sleep on the [C] hay

The [C] cattle are lowing, the [F] Baby a-[C]-wakes
But [G] little Lord Jesus, no crying He [C] makes
I [C] love Thee, Lord Jesus, look [F] down from the [C] sky
And [G] stay by my [C] side until [G] morning is [C] nigh


Be [C] near me, Lord Jesus, I [F] ask Thee to [C] stay
Close [G] by me forever and love me I [C] pray
Bless [C] all the dear children in [F] Thy tender [C] care
And [G] fit us for [C] heaven to [G] live with Thee [C] there

A-[C]-way in a manger, no [F] crib for a [C] bed
The [G] little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet [C] head
The [C] stars in the bright sky looked [F] down where He [C] lay
The [G] little [C] Lord Jesus a-[G]-sleep on the [C] hay
