Dec. 16, 2006 - My Favorite Christmas Carol
Blogger Friend School - Assignment #10
Christmas will soon be here and it seems no matter how we plan, it is always a busy time in our lives.
This week’s assignment will be hopefully simple, yet inspirational. Share your favorite Christmas verse, quote or poem.
As a child my Mom sang this song to us and with us, at Christmas-time and all through the year....
I especially love the last verse and sing it to my children throughout the year!
Away In A Manger
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 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 for Heaven to live with Thee there.
