D G D Em
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
A7 D E7 A7
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head.
D G D Em
The stars in the bright sky, looked down where he lay.
A7 D
The little Lord Jesus
G A7 D
a-sleep on the hay.
D G D Em
The cattle are lowing, the baby a-wakes,
A7 D E7 A7
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
D G D Em
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
A7 D
And stay by my cradle
G A7 D
'til morning is nigh.
D G D Em
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
A7 D E7 A7
Close by me for-ever, and love me, I pray
D G D Em
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
A7 D
And take us to heaven,
G A7 D A D
to live with Thee there.
