Sweet Little Jesus Boy

Robert MacGimsey

[Verse 1]
Sweet little Jesus boy
They made you be born in a manger
Sweet little holy child
We didn't know who you was
Didn't know you'd come to save us, Lord
To take our sins away
Our eyes was blind, we could not see
We didn't know who you was

[Verse 2]
Long time ago
You was born
Born in a manger, Lord
Sweet little Jesus boy
The world treats you mean, Lord
Treat me mean too
But that's how things is down here
We don't know who you is

[Verse 3]
You done told us how
We is a trying
Master, you done showed us how
Even when you was dying
Just seems like we can't do right
Look how we treated you
But please, Sir, forgivе us, Lord
We didn't know it was you

[Outro]
Sweet little Jesus boy
Born a long timе ago
Sweet little holy child
And we didn't know who you was
