The St. Philips Boy's Choir - Away in a manger

Away in a manger
no crib for his bed
The little Lord Jesus
lay down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked
down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
asleep on the hay
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 cradle
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 thy tender care
And take us to heaven
to live with thee there
