Couplet 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

Couplet 2

The cattle' are lowing
The poor 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

Couplet 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 take us to Heaven
To live with Thee there

Refrain

Come and worship come and worship
Worship Christ the newborn King
Oh come and worship come and worship
Worship Christ the newborn King

Couplet 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
