English text
- 1
- Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
- The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.
- The stars in the sky looked down where He lay,
- The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.
- 2
- 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.
- 3
- 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 Thee there.
