Away in a manger by Pentatonix || Cover song by Oyinwrites || Hive Open Mic #298

Hello Hive Open Mic family! For Week 298, I’ll be sharing my cover of “Away in a Manger” by Pentatonix, a beautiful Christmas carol that reminds us of the humble birth of Jesus and the message of love, peace, and hope that the season carries.

This song has a calm and gentle feel that I really love. Singing it felt like a quiet moment of reflection and gratitude, a reminder of the joy that Christmas brings, and the warmth that comes from sharing music with others. I hope this performance brings a little peace and light to anyone who listens.

As we celebrate this festive season, I want to wish everyone in the Hive Open Mic community a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance. May this season fill your hearts with joy, love, and beautiful moments with the people you care about. I’m grateful to be part of this amazing community and thankful for another year of music, creativity, and connection.

Much love,
Oyinwrites

Lyrics

La da da da da da, la da da da da da
La da da da da da, la da da da
Away in a manger, no crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay
La da da da da da, la da da da da da
La da da da da da, la da da da
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 'til morning is nigh
La da da da da da, la da da da da da
La da da da da da, la da da da
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 (with Thee there)
La da da da da da, la da da da da da
La da da da da da, la da da da
Away in a manger, no crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay
La da da da da da, la da da da da da
La da da da da da, la da da da
