AWAY IN A MANGER
Traditional Christmas


---Key of E---


A(E)way in a manger, no (A) crib for a (E) bed,
The (B7) little Lord Jesus laid (E) down His sweet head.
The stars in the sky looked (A) down where He (E) lay,
The (B7) little Lord (E) Jesus, asleep on the hay.

The (E) cattle are lowing, the (A) Baby a(E)wakes,
But (B7) little Lord Jesus, no (E) crying He makes;
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look (A) down from the (E) sky
And (B7) stay by my cr(E)adle til morning is nigh.

Be (E) near me, Lord Jesus, I (A) ask Thee to (E) stay
Close (B7) by me forever, and (E) love me, I pray;
Bless all the dear children in (A) Thy tender (E) care,
And (B7) fit us for (E) heaven to live with Thee there.
