Away in a    manger
Am         Gm
No crib for a bed
Gm7 C7/E   C    F
The little Lord Jesus
Dm   G/B      G7    C
Laid down His sweet head

The stars in the  sky

looked down where He lay
Gm7 C7/E   C    F
The little Lord Jesus

a  sleep on the hay.

no crying He ma-kes;

I  love Thee, Lord Jesus

Look down from the sky

morning  is nigh.
