Away In A Manger

Verse 1

Verse 2

Verse 3

G C G Away in a manger, no crib for His bed, D C D G The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head. G C G The stars in the bright sky looked down where He lay Am G C D G 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 take us to heaven, to Live with Thee there.

Above the earth, Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth. Down in a lowly manger our humble Christ was born And God sent us salvation, that blessed Christmas morn!

Em H Em Ой, зійшла, зійшла правда на землю

D C H Та й обітала там між людьми, G D C H Все розказала, як треба людям H Em D G H7 Em Як треба жить, як Бог велить.

Em H Em Де ж тая правда, звідки з'явилась?

D C H Де ж вона нині на світі є? G D C H - Там в Вифлеємі, в яслах родилась, H Em D G H7 Em А тепер в вірних серцях живе.

Христос є правда, Христос є світло, Христос є хліб життя для нас. О, якби люди зі всього світу Прийшли до Нього, Він би їх спас.

І Дух Святий, і правда із неба Шукають собі в сердцях ясел, Щоб поселитись, щоби родити Овочі правди в серцях людей.

І в кому знайдуть місце для себе, Там запанує радість свята, Тому дарують місце на небі Та й помагають нести хреста.

Ой у Вифлеємі весела новина

Ой, радуйся, Земле – Божий Син народився! І Отцівське Слово зодяглося в Тіло, Радуйся! Ой, радуйся, Земле – Божий Син народився! Ангели співають Господу своєму, Радуйся! Ой, радуйся, Земле – Божий Син народився! Славу, честь складають Новородженому! Радуйся! Ой, радуйся, Земле – Божий Син народився! І ми родженого Христа прославляймо! Радуйся!
