Away In Five
by Dawson Cowals

Album: Born Is the King

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 baby awakes,
But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.
I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky,
And stay by my craddle till morning is nigh.

Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask you to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven to live with thee there.

Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven to live with thee there.
