Sweet little Jesus Boy ?
They made you be born in a manger.
Sweet little Holy Child ?
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 couldn’t see,
We didn’t know who you was.
Long time ago, you was born,
Born in a manger low,
Sweet little Jesus Boy.
The world treat you mean, Lord,
Treat me mean too,
But that’s how things is down here ?
We don’t know who you is.
You done told us how, we is a tryin’!
Master, you done show’d us how,
even when you was dyin’.
Just seem like we can’t do right,
Look how we treated you.
But please, sir, forgive us, Lord ?
We didn’t know ’twas you.
Sweet little Jesus Boy, born long time ago.
Sweet little Holy Child,
And we didn’t know who you was.
