Verse 1:
  Ab                  Db          Ab
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
    Eb                      Bbm       Eb     Ab
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head
    Ab                       Db             Ab
The stars in the sky looked down where He lay
    Eb           Ab       Bbm      Eb   Ab
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay


Verse 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 the cradle til morning is nigh


Verse 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
