Casting Crowns - Sweet Little Jesus Boy Lyrics






Sweet little Jesus boy, born in a manger
Sweet little Holy child, we didn't know who You were
Long time ago it seems You were born
Born in a manger Lord, sweet little Jesus boy

Didn't know You'd come to save us all
To take our sins away
Our eyes were blind we did not see
We didn't know who You were

You have shown us how
And we are trying
Master You have shown us how
Even as You were dying
This world treats You mean Lord
Treats me mean too
But that's how things are done down here
We didn't know it was You

Didn't know You'd come to save us all
To take our sins away
Our eyes were blind we did not see
We didn't know who You were

    Oh, how few remember the reason for this day. His Birthday is forgotten while we celebrate & play. We cover up the holiday with tinsel & with light. And soon we drown the meaning why He came that Christmas night.

    J.... Y....

    I agree completely!
    Happy holidays?
    Seasons greetings?
    NO!
    Merry Christmas!
    I don't like it said any other way! People have taken the Christ out of Christmas. If not for CHRIST, there would be no Christmas! Your comment is perfect!

  14. s.... ....

    Beautiful song

  15. T.... o....

    I killed Jesus

    T.... o....

    @marcia m Honestly i'm getting bored of this argument i'm not stopping cause I can't get an answer i'm just honestly can't be arsed to argue anymore so cya loonie 

    T.... o....

    Lol no other answer i suppose

    T.... o....

    +That one sneaky Atheist Ancient texts that also have modern evidence? What exactly is that supposed to mean? Sounds like you may have to much faith in "modern" evidence. Aren't truth and evidence objective, i.e. not subject to interpretation. What do you mean by "modern" evidence?


    If you think only "modern" evidence and thoughts will do, you can't have one of the strongest arguments against Theism, the problem of pain. Logic is logic, there is no "old" and "new."


    But I do have a question for you. As an atheist, what is your basis for a belief in logic. Also, what is your basis for a belief in right and wrong if you have one? Aren't both of these things "spiritual" in that they are not material? What is the basis for them if there is no God who has made all things, material and immaterial?

    T.... o....

    True.
    "The punishment for us all was laid upon Him".
    We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. So in fact you did kill Jesus. And so did I.

    T.... o....

    You are right you and I and everyone killed him . He died for us . But you know what's amazing. You act like you don't know him and deny him yet your here and listening to this Song cuz you have hope in him . He loves you no matter if you deny him . His own disciple Peter denied him 3 times. Deep down in your heart you DO believe in Jesus. God bless you and may his love and kindness surround your heart and you experience his divine love n grace .

  16. E.... T....

    no one knew who he was and they killed him I wish I was there to him and be with him

  17. E.... D....

    I like Larnelle Harris version best. Maybe because it was the first version of this song I ever heard, but I can't find it on line. I have on a cassette tape! Blessings to all!

    E.... D....

    I just found Laranelle's up here.  

  18. A.... M....

    This is beautiful but my favorite is Ms. Mahalia Jackson. She is better suited to sing it with such a rich and soulful voice! Just wish I'd met her!

  19. M.... S....

    The lyrics are wonderful . . .and this song has been sung in many different 'styles' . . . The truth will transcend all cultural hurdles . . . Praise God !

    M.... S....

    Oh, Amen! 😇

  20. L.... S....

    serender to jesus but be strong so the devil will be weak.

  21. K.... H....

    aww...I have a cat named Bootsie who I think is dying of renal failure. I sing this to her every day now, with different lyrics and begin with "Sweet Little Bootsie girl.."

  22. T.... ....

    some songs you can change up...others like this are best just as they are...

  23. C.... B....

    Actually... no, it is NOT a spiritual at all. The song was written (convincingly)in the style of spiritual by Robert MacGimsey and published in 1934.

  24. C.... D....

    My favorite Christmas song.

  25. k.... p....

    Thank you

  26. D.... W....

    @mjlesq in the style but not an actual one...

  27. m.... ....

    2:42 piano and violin is exquisite!

  28. s.... ....

    accrording to the bible when jesus was crucified, before he die he said "Father please forgive them, for they know not what they do." this song captures the esenties of that passage of the bible

  29. V.... M....

    i love this song. my friend sung this for our church christmas party, it was beautiful.

    V.... M....

    "I"should be capital

  30. K.... C....

    I LOVE this song! It speaks the real truth about the Birth of Christ!

  31. r.... a....

    Thank You dear lord for you Son who has come to save the world. How I love you

  32. H.... T....

    @mjlesq repetitive enough?

  33. V.... K....

    Amen! Merry Christmas and God bless u, brothers and sisters! Well, remember the true meaning of Christmas, which is not about santa claus, presents, etc! This is the very day that Lord Jesus Christ came to die for our sins! Merry Christmas once again and may you feel blessed :)

  34. N.... K....

    beautiful.. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
