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 You, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
Until morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask You to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
Bless all the dear children
In Your tender care
And fit us for heaven
To live with You there

I’ve decided this will be my nightly prayer … I tested positive with Covid and a few days later it was so severe that I was blue lighted by ambulance to hospital with a temperature of 40.2 heartbeat of 140 and suspected sepsis. I 100% believed I was going to die! I have never been as scared in my life! I’m back home now and I’ve just listened to the below words … I’ll be saying them nightly 🙏🏻❤️

“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”

I wish we could have seen more from this boy before he left

[TinyMaths]

So much spine tingling I was unsure I would survive 🙂
This is one of my all time favourite Christmas carols; so simple, so delicate.
And the choral arrangement here tugs so much at your heart strings.

Glory to the Lord. I Love mau Savior JESUS.
