Selah - 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

Hear the angels' soft singing, a sweet melody Mother Mary beside him in serene revelry The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes

Away in a manger, sweet emblem of love Sent down from the Father, precious gift from above 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 Take us to heaven to live with Thee there

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head
