"Sweet Jesus" is an old song that my mom used to sing to us as we were going to sleep. I don't remember her singing it to me as a young girl (maybe she did), but I do remember her always singing it to the "little kids" (aka: my younger siblings). It is a song that is very special to me, bringing back a lot of happy memories. I have always sung this song to Riley as I rock him before he goes to bed. He began singing it himself a few months ago. I tried to capture the moment on video, but he is being a little bit silly and rocking in the rocking chair, so please bear with the shakiness!
Here are the words:
Sweet Jesus, sweet Jesus
What a wonder you are.
You're brighter than the morning star.
And, fairer, much fairer,
than the lily that grows by the wayside.
More precious, more precious
than gold.
