Sweet Little Jesus Boy
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 low 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
We don't know who You are
We don't know who You are
We don't know who You are
You have told us how, we are trying
Master, You have shown us how even when you were dying
Just seem 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
Sweet Little Jesus boy born a long time ago
Sweet little Holy child
We didn't know who You were
