Lyrics

Away in a manger
Written by martin luther and jonathan e. spillman

Away in a manger
No crib for his bed
The little lord jesus
Laid down his sweet head
The stars in the bright 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 you, lord jesus!
Look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle
Til morning is nigh
