  • We will be practicing in both hours of Sunday School during the coming weeks.If you would like to practice with your child at home, please use the verses printed below.
  • More detailed info will follow as we get closer to the date.
 
Away in a manger, no crib for his bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay,
The little Lord Jesus asleep in 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 til morning is nigh.
