v.1
^DAway in a manger, no ^Gcrib for a ^Dbed
The ^Alittle lord Jesus lay ^Gdown his sweet ^Dhead
The ^Dstars in the sky look ^Gdown where he ^Dlay
The ^Glittle Lord ^DJesus a^Asleep on the ^Dhay

v.2
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 sky
And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh

v.3
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
