1. A [A]way in a manger no [D]crib for a [A]bed
The [E]little Lord Jesus laid [D]down His sweet [A]head
The [A]stars in the sky looked [D]down where he [A]lay
The [D]little Lord [A]Jesus a [E]sleep on the [A]hay
2. The [A]cattle are lowing, the [D]baby a [A]wakes
But [E]little Lord Jesus, no [D]crying He [A]makes
I [A]love Thee Lord Jesus! Look [D]down from the [A]sky
And [D]stay by my [A]cradle til [E]morning is [A]nigh [D]
Chorus:It’s [A]Christmas! [D]The angels are [A]singing
[D]And I know the [A]reason
[E]the savior is [A]born
It’s [A]Christmas![D]The bells are [A]ringing
[D]And I feel like [A]shouting
[E]Joy to the [A]world!
3. Be [A]near me, Lord Jesus I [D]ask thee to [A]stay
Close [E]by me forever and [D]love me I [A]pray
Bless [A]all the dear children in [D]thy tender [A]care
And [D]fit us for [A]heaven to [E]live with thee [A]there
* [A]Go tell it on the mountain
[E]Over the hills and [A]everywhere! Go,
Tell it on the[D]mountain that [E]Jesus Christ is [A]born!
