Lyrics Away In a Manger - Ole Edvard Antonsen

Away in a manger
No crib for his 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 Baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes

I love You, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
Until morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask Thi to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray

Bless all the dear children
In Thi tender care
And fit us for heaven
To live with Thi there
