Artist background

Bing Crosby brought an intimate singing style to radio, records and films, becoming closely associated with Irving Berlin’s “White Christmas”. His recording offers a wistful picture of the season rather than a noisy celebration. That easy, conversational voice remains the attraction: a little nostalgia for anyone dreaming of snow, wherever they happen to be listening.

Show 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 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 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
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there
