[Verse] G G7 C G Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, D D The little Lord Jesus, C G lay down his sweet head. G G7 The stars in the bright sky, C G looked down where he lay D7 G The little Lord Jesus, Am D7 G asleep on the hay. [Verse] G G7 The cattle are lowing, C G the baby awakes; D D But little Lord Jesus, C G no crying he makes. G G7 I love thee, Lord Jesus, C G look down from the sky, D7 G And stay by my bedside, Am D7 G till morning is nigh. [Verse] G G7 Be near me Lord Jesus, C G I ask thee to stay, D D Close by me forever, C G and love me I pray. G G7 Bless all the dear children, C G in thy tender care, D7 G And fit us for heaven, Am D7 G to live with thee there.
