Away in a manger
No crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
What a sacred night
The stars are shining bright
The angels singing loudly, “The Savior has arrived.”
The music filled the skies
What a lullaby
To announce the newborn baby to people far and nigh
And they cried, “ Holy, holy, holy
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high.”
All the angels sang, “Glory, glory, glory,
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high.”
The cattle are lowing
The baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes
I love the Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle ‘til morning is nigh
Oh what a sacred night
The stars are shining bright
The angels singing loudly, “The Savior has arrived.”
The music filled the skies
What a lullaby
To announce the newborn baby to people far and nigh
And they sang, “ Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high.”
All the angels sang, “Glory, glory, glory,
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high.”
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 fit us for heaven to live with You there
And we will cry, “ Holy, holy, holy,
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God on high.”
Children help me sing
“Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God on high.”
Everybody sing:
“Glory, glory, glory,
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high." (4x)
