Away in a Manger
Wrapped in swaddling clothes, the Prince of peace
Wheels start turning, torches start burning
Behold wise men journey from the East
How a little baby Boy bringing people so much joy?
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
A shepherd on a hillside, while over my flock I bide
On a cold winter night a band of angels sing
In a dream I heard a voice saying, "Fear not, come rejoice
It's the end of the beginning, praise the new born King"
How a little baby Boy bringing people so much joy?
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
I saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies
But why a simple herdsmen such as I
And then it came to pass, He was born at last
Right below the star that shines on high
How a little baby Boy bringing people so much joy?
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be Christmas, must be tonight
