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
The cattle are lowing, the poor baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes
I love Thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the night 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 take us to Heaven to live with Thee there
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise

Jesus is your name (Jesus)
Worthy forever
You deserve the praise (All my praise forever)
Worthy is your name
Holy is your name Jesus (There is no other name)
You deserve the praise (All my praise)
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise
Worthy is your name
Worthy is your name Jesus
You deserve the praise

There is a name I love to sing
I love to sing in its worth
It sounds like music in my ears
Oh sweetest name on earth
Oh, how I love Jesus (I love Jesus)
Oh, how I love Jesus
Oh, how I love Jesus
Because He first loved me
