Sweet Little Jesus Boy Songtext
von Ida Maria

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 who 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, Lord
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 trying
Master Lord, you done showed us how
Even when you was dying
Just seems like we can't do right
Look how we treated you
Our eyes was blind, forgive us, Lord
We didn′t know it was you

Sweet little Jesus boy
They made you be born in a manger
Sweet little holy child
We didn't know who you was
