Away in a Manger Songtext
von Julie Andrews

Away in a manger, no crib for His bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.

The stars in the Heavens
Look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep in the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes,
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.


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 take us to Heaven to live with Thee there

Away in a manger
No crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus
Lay down His sweet head
The stars in the Heavens
Look down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep in the hay
