Intro: G C G D7 G  

  G                   C          G  
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed  
     D7                     G  
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head  
                             C             G  
The stars in the sky looked down where He lay  
     C           G        D7          G  
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay  
     G                      C         G  
The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes  
     D7                    G  
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes  
                                C             G  
I love Thee, Lord Jesus!  Look down from the sky  
     C          G           D7         G  
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh 

Interlude:  G C G  

    G                      C           G  
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay  
      D7                  G  
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray  
                                C          G  
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care  
     C            G        D7             G   
And take us for Heaven to live with Thee there  
Interlude: G C G D7 G  
  G                   C          G  
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed  
     D7                     G  
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head  
                             C             G  
The stars in the sky looked down where He lay  
     C           G        D7          G  
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay  
     C           G       D7           G  
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay
