Maddy Prior And The Carnival Band - Away In A Manger lyrics

Away in a manger No crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus Laid down his sweet head The stars in the bright sky 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 skies And stay by my side Until morning is nigh Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay Close by me for ever And love me, I pray; Bless all the dear children In thy tender care And fit us for heaven To live with thee there
