(1, 2, 3!)
Away in a manger
No crib for a bed.
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head.
The stars in the sky look down where he lay,
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

So let them praise him. (3X)
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are mowing,
the baby awakes.
The little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
I love thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
and stay by my cradle 'til morning is niegh.

So let them praise him. (3X)
and stay by my cradle until morning is niegh.

(in round)
Be near me Lord Jesus I ask thee to stay
close by me forever and ever I pray
Bless all the dear children
In thy tender care
And fit us for heaven
to live with thee there.

(YEAH!)

So let them praise him. (3X)
And fit us for heaven to live with thee there

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
