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
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

Video+Lyrics: Just A Close Walk With Thee – Mahalia Jackson

Lyrics
I am weak, but Thou art strong;
Jesus, keep me from all wrong;
I’ll be satisfied as long
As I walk, let me walk close to Thee.
Just a closer walk with Thee,
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea,
Daily walking close to Thee,
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
Through this world of toil and snares,
If I falter, Lord, who cares?
Who with me my burden shares?
None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee.
Just a closer walk with Thee,
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea,
Daily walking close to Thee,
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
When my feeble life is o’er,
Time for me will be no more;
Guide me gently, safely o’er
To Thy kingdom shore, to Thy shore.
Just a closer walk with Thee,
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea,
Daily walking close to Thee,
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

Video+Lyrics: I Found The Answer – Mahalia Jackson

Lyrics
I found the answer, I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, I’ve found the way
The sun is shining for me each day
I found the answer, and I learned to pray
I found the answer, I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, I’ve found the way
The sun is shining for me each day
I found the answer, and I learned to pray
I was weak and weary, I had gone astray
Walking in the darkness, I could not find the way
But then a light came shining to lead me from despair
All my sins forgiven, and I was free from care
I found the answer, oh, I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, I’ve found the way
The sun is shining, oh, for me each day
Oh, I found the answer, and I learned to pray
Keep your Bible with you, read it every day
Always count your blessings, always stop and pray
Learn to keep on believing and faith will see you through
Seek to know contentment, and it will come to you
I found the answer and I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, oh, I’ve found the way
The sun is shining, oh, for me each day, yes
I found the answer, and I learned to pray

Video+Lyrics: Amazing Grace – Mahalia Jackson

Lyrics:

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me….
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
T’was Grace that taught…
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear…
the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares…
we have already come.
T’was Grace that brought us safe thus far…
and Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me…
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be…
as long as life endures.
When we’ve been here ten thousand years…
bright shining as the sun.
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise…
then when we’ve first begun.

“Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me….
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

Video+Lyrics: Elijah Rock – Mahalia Jackson

Lyrics
Elijah Rock, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Elijah Rock, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Elijah, Elijah, Elijah
Elijah, Elijah, Elijah
Satan is a liar and a conjurer too
If you don’t mind high, he’ll come to you
If I could, I surely would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Ezekiel said he saw him
Wheel in the mid’ of a wheel
John talked about him
In the book of the seven seals
Some say the Rose of Sharon
Others say the Prince of Peace
But I can tell this old world
He been a rock and a shelter for me
Hallelujah
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
You can call my rock in the morning
Call him late at night
He’s always with me
And all my battles he’ll fight
When I’m in trouble
I can call him on the line
He put a telephone in my heart
And I can call God anytime
Hallelujah
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock I’m comin’ up, Lord
You can call my rock in the morning
Call him late at night
He’s always with me
All my battles he’ll fight
When I’m in trouble
I can call him on the line
He got a telephone in my heart
And I can call God anytime
Hallelujah
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock comin’ up, Lord
Elijah Rock, shout, shout, shout
Elijah Rock I’m comin’ up, Lord
