Verso 1

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

Verso 2

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 fit us for Heaven
To live with Thee there

Refrão

Jesus holy One
You are light invading the dark
Glory of God the Word in the flesh
Before our eyes

Refrão

Hope entered in
To free us from sin
By an unexpected King
The world didn't know
The price for their sin
Was before their eyes

Refrão

Jesus holy One
You are light invading the dark
Glory of God the Word in the flesh
Before our eyes

Refrão

Hope entered in
To free us from sin
By an unexpected King
The world didn't know
The price for their sin
Was before their eyes

Verso 3

Jesus our Savior
From Your divine birth
Now seated in glory
We await Your return
