Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down  His sweet head
The stars in the 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 cradle 'til morning is nigh

It's Christmas!
The angels are singing
And I know the reason
The Savior is born
It's Christmas!
The bells are ringing
And I feel like shouting 
Joy to the world!

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

It's Christmas!
The angels are singing
And I know the reason
The Savior is born
Yes, it's Christmas!
The bells are ringing
And I feel like shouting 
Joy to the world!

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain 
That Jesus Christ is born!

It's Christmas!
The angels are singing
And I know the reason
The Savior is born
Yes, it's Christmas!
The bells are ringing
And I feel like shouting 
Joy to the world! 
Joy to the world!
Oh, joy to the world!
