Away in a Manger ASL Primary Song

Hey friends, I hope you enjoy Away in a Manger in simplified ASL. The purpose of this song is to help Primary Choristers teach this song to children who are beginning signers. 😀 This video explains each ASL sign and action I use to highlight the main words and ideas of the song to keep it simple and meaningful. 🤟

Here are the lyrics for 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 bright 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 side
Until 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
