Be Thou My Vission / Away In A Manger Lyrics by John Barrowman

A Fabulous Christmas

2019

[Verse 1]
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
[Verse 2]
Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Away in a manger, no crib for His 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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
High King of Heaven, my victory won
May I reach Heaven’s joys or bright Heaven's Sun
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all
