[Verse]
AFway in a manger, no Fcrib for a Cbed
The C7little Lord FJesus Dmlaid G7down His sweet C7head.
The Fstars in the bright sky looked F7down where He Bblay,
The Gmlittle CLord FJesus, Dma-a-Bb6sleep on C7the Fhay.
[Verse]
The Fcattle are lowing, the FBaby aCwakes,
But C7little Lord FJesus, Dmno G7crying He C7makes;
I Flove Thee, Lord Jesus, look F7down from the Bbsky
And Gmstay by Cmy Fside unDmti-il Bb6morning C7is Fnigh.
[Verse]
Be Fnear me, Lord Jesus, I Fask Thee to Cstay
Close C7by me forFever, Dmand G7love me, I C7pray;
Bless Fall the dear children in F7Thy tender Bbcare,
And Gmfit us Cfor FHeaven Dmto-o Bb6live with C7Thee Fthere.
