Lyrics

Sweet little Jesus boy
They made You be born in a manger
Sweet little holy child
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
You have shown us how
We are trying
Master, You have shown us how
Even when You were dying
It 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
Sweet little Jesus boy
Born long ago
Sweet little holy child
And we didn't know who You were
