Sweet Little Jesus Boy Lyrics

(Swee-ee-ee-eet)



Sweet... little Jesus boy-oy-oy 

They made You be born in a manger-er

Swee-ee-ee-eet little Ho-oly chi-i-ld

They didn't know who You were



Didn't know You'd come to save us Lord

To take our sins away 

Our eyes were bli-i-ind

And we could not see-ee

We didn't know-ow who-oo You were



A long time ago-o 

You were bor-orn in a manger, Lor-ordd

Sweet little Je-esus Boy (Sweet Jesus boy)

Now the world treated You mean, Lor-ord

And it's been treatin' me mean too

But that's how things are done now, yeah-eah (Swee-ee-eet)

We didn't know it was You 



You done told us how

And we are a-tryin'

Master, You done showed us how (how-ow-ow)

Even when you were dyin' (when you were dyin')

It just seems like we can't do right (do right)

Look how we treated you, yeah-eah

Please, please, forgive us Lord...

We didn't know it was you



Sweet little Jesus boy-oy (Sweet little Je-esu-us)

Born a long time ago-o

Swee-ee-ee-eet little Holy chi-i-ild

We didn't know who-oo You were
