Lyrics Kitty Wells

Kitty Wells

Away In A Manger

Away in a manger no crib for a bed

The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head

The stars in the sky looked down where he lay

The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing the baby awakes

But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes

I love Thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky

And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh.

Be near me Lord Jesus I ask Thee to stay

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.

Away in a manger no crib for his bed

The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head

The stars in the sky looked down where he lay

The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay...
