AWAY IN A MANGER

INTRO: F G7 C D7 G7 C

A[C]way in a manger, No [C7] crib for a [F] bed,

The [F] little [G7] lord [C] Jesus
Lay [D7] down his sweet [G7] head
The [C] stars in the bright sky,
Look [C7] down where he [F] lay,
The [F] little [G7] lord [C] Jesus,
A[D7]sleep on [G7] the [C] hay.

The [C] cattle are lowing, The [C7] baby a[F]wakes,

But [F] little [G7] lord [C] Jesus
No [D7] crying he [G7] makes.
I [C] love you lord Jesus, Look [C7] down from the [F] sky
And [F] stay by [G7] my [C] side
Until [D7] morning [G7] is [C] nigh.

Be [C] near me lord Jesus, I [C7] ask you to [F] stay,

Close [F] by me [G7] for [C] ever
And [D7] love me I [G7] pray.
Bless [C] all the dear children, In [C7] thy tender [F] care,
SLOWER TO FINISH – 1 STROKE ON ‘THERE’
And [F] fit us [G7] for [C] heaven
To [D7] live with [G7] thee [C] there /
