+====== Away in a Manger ======
+==== Lyrics ====
+**Text:** Anonymous
+Away in a manger, no crib for His bed,\\
+The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head;\\
+The stars in the heavens look 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 sky\\
+And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh.
+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 to heaven to live with Thee there.
