His Hand In Mine - Mahalia Jackson

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

Long time ago

You were born

Born in a manger Lord

Sweet little Jesus boy

The world treats you mean Lord

Treats me mean too

But that’s how things are 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 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 a long time ago

Sweet little holy child

We didn’t know who you were
