Away In A Manger

[Verse 1]
 D        D7         G          D
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
    A           A          G              D
The little Lord Jesus, lay down his sweet head.
    D            D7                 G             D
The stars in the bright sky, looked down where he lay
    A7          D       Em       A7  D
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.
 
 
[Verse 2]
    D          D7          G     D
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes;
    A           A         G         D
But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.
  D               D7          G             D
I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky,
    A7         D             Em      A7 D
And stay by my bedside, till morning is nigh.
 
 
[Verse 3]
   D            D7       G           D
Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay,
      A        A          G        D
Close by me forever, and love me I pray.
      D            D7           G          D
Bless all the dear children, in thy tender care,
    A7         D          Em        A7   D
And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
