Rebecca St. James - Sweet Little Jesus Boy Lyrics
Sweet Little Jesus Boy
Written by Robert Mac Gimsey
CHORUS:
Sweet little Jesus boy
They made You be born in a manger
Sweet little Holy child,
We didn't know who You were
Sweet little Jesus boy
They made You be born in a manger
Sweet little Holy child,
We didn't know who You were
We didn't know who You were
Didn't know You'd
Come to save us Lord
To take our sins away
Our eyes were blind
We could not see
We didn't know who You were
We didn't know who You were
Long time ago You were born
Born in a manger
Sweet little Jesus boy
The world treats You mean Lord,
Treats me mean too
But that's how things are down here
We don't know who You are (x4)
You have told us how, we are trying
Master, you've shown us how,
Even when you were dying
Just seems like we can't do right,
Look how we treated You
But please Sir, forgive us Lord
We didn't know it was You
We didn't know it was You (x3)
Sweet little Jesus boy,
Born a long time ago
Sweet little Holy child,
We didn't know who You were
