Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band

Away in a manger,
no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus

Laid down his sweet head.
The stars in the bright sky
Looked down where he lay,
The little Lord Jesus
asleep on 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 skies
And stay by my side

I love thee Lord Jesus,
Look down from the skies
And stay by my side
Until morning is nigh.
Be near me, Lord Jesus;
I ask thee to stay
Close by me for ever
And love me, I pray;
Bless all the dear children
In thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven
To live with thee there.
