Carols

From Kindergarten to Year 6 we are practising the Christmas Carol, ‘Away In A Manger’ for our local community church carol evening.  

 

DATE: Saturday 16th December

TIME: 7:30pm

LOCATION: St Jude's Anglican Church Hall

 

Our band students have been learning this piece on their instruments. Students in years 2 to 6 learning the chords on the ukulele and the whole school learning the words.

Please mark your calendars for this event. As our school will be presenting this item for visitors to sing along to we would like to ensure school support. It is always a lovely family night out. 

 

LYRICS: Away in a Manger 

 

Away in a manger, no crib for his bed, 

The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. 

The stars in the heavens looked down where he lay, 

The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay. 

 

The cattle are lowing; the poor baby wakes, 

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.
