Sweet little Jesus boy, they made You born in a manger
Sweet little Holy Child,
We didn't know who You was.
Sweet little Jesus boy, they made You born in a manger
Sweet little Holy Child,
We didn't know who You was.
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.
We didn't know who You was.
Long time ago You was born
Born in a manger low sweet little Jesus boy.
The world treats You mean Lord, treats me mean too
But that's how it is down here;
We don't know who You are.
You have told us how, we are trying.
Master You have shown us how even when You were dying.
Just seem like we can't do right, look how we treated You.
But please forgive us Lord
We didn't know it was You.
We didn't know it was You. (x3)
Sweet little Jesus boy born long time ago
Sweet little Holy Child,
We didn't know who You was.
