Williams, Andy - Little Altar Boy Lyrics






Little alter boy, I wonder could you pray for me?
Little alter boy, for I have gone astray
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy ,oh, let me hear you pray

Little alter boy, I wonder could you ask your lord
Ask him, alter boy, to take my sins away
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy, oh, let me hear you pray

Lift up your voice and send a pray above
Help me rejoice and fill that prayer with love
Now I know my life has been all wrong
Lift my your voice and help a sinner be strong

Little alter boy, I wonder could you pray for me?
Could you tell our lord I'm gonna change my ways today?
What must I do to be holy like you?
Little alter boy, oh, let me hear you pray
Little alter boy please let me hear you pray!

  1. E.... C....

    sound toys brought me here lol

  2. L.... Z....

    My brother was an altar boy from 5 to 20. He passed at 34. I love the tears that song brings to my 💓

    L.... Z....

    sorry for your deep loss.

  3. m.... s....

    My favorite Christmas album of all time.

  4. j.... m....

    The voice of an Angel!

  5. T.... N....

    Classic love Andy!!!

  6. C.... 1....

    Here's a SHOCKER..... It's January 28th and I am very much tuned-in to this song!! It evokes a CALMNESS of my soul, that I very much.... NEED!!!

    C.... 1....

    CocoaFemme 1015: 4/29/18, I'm listening.... AGAIN. One of the positives of living.....ALONE!!!

    C.... 1....

    CocoaFemme 1015 got another shocker it's May 20th 2018 and l am watching the Royal wedding of Harry and Megan and when l saw the alter boys l thought of this song and Christmas and next June 20 it will be summer how this song fits any time of the Season l guess!

    C.... 1....

    Mack Jack: Nice reply, tysvm. Agreed, this song isn't necessarily seasonal. Want to know something even more strange? I listen to Mr Williams' "Some children see him," at least once-a-week!!!

  7. W.... P....

    I received my Associate's Degree in Applied Science, recently. I played this song to myself after holding the diploma certificate in my hands to give myself a pat on the back. Only thing sucks is I couldn't hold tears back.

    W.... P....

    Vince Peters im proud of you. Never stop learning and bettering yourself.

  8. M.... ....

    This remains my all time favorite Christmas album. Every song on it is pure perfection.

  9. T.... M....

    This was my late father's favorite Christmas song. Miss you Daddy!

  10. O.... S....

    I prefer Glen Campbell's.

  11. M.... A....

    A lot of people like to make comparisons, Karen Carpenter's is better, Glen Campbell's is better... It is a beautiful song, which you prefer depends on your own interpretations of the song. All three are transcendent !

    M.... A....

    Vic Dana's version sings thus song in the 1962 teen film "Don't Knock the Twist"

  12. m.... l....

    so beautiful!

  13. g.... ....

    I so so so love this

  14. g.... ....

    sp huimble and wonderful god bless
    \

  15. J.... S....

    wonderful song, heart-rending sentiment.
    the wish of forgiveness
    .

  16. M.... M....

    I have this album.

  17. J.... R....

    thumbs up if a priest molested you to this song

    J.... R....

    Jonathen Ross: You MUST be a very unhappy individual!! Pretty unfortunate, that you would TAINT such a positive song!!!

  18. M.... S....

    The whole album has been a favorite of mine since the early 70s. Reminds me of kinder, gentler times......I miss them

  19. K.... K....

    why don't they play this Christmas song more

    K.... K....

    because some perverted ppl attributed it to being sexual towards small boys, makes me wonder why their mind even went there to begin with

  20. g.... l....

    Best Christmas Crooner IMHO. Love Andy...he is Mr. Christmas! that smile, that twinkle in his eyes! Wow!

  21. J.... G....

    Andy, You were the best! Thank you for recording this lovely song! R. I. P.

  22. M.... S....

    With the exception of Jack Jones. Only Andy could invoke the visions and sound and imagery of Christmas. Jack Jones Christmas Is and Andy's Christmas touch takes me to a place of long ago..Christmas' of Long Long ago....and yes Christmas Eve! Andy is gone. there will never be another. never.

    M.... S....

    very evocative for sure. I feel like I'm 6 years old laying under the tree starring up wide eyed when I hear this song.

    M.... S....

    I have loved Andy's singing and voice since i was a little bitty Malaysian Chinese boy! STill do!

  23. C.... J....

    Thank you for posting this. So beautiful.

  24. A.... S....

    The first time I heard this song, I was at Silver Dollar City watching their stage play version of the all-time classic "The Christmas Carol." My favorite version of this song will forever be the one sung by their actor for Scrooge.

    A.... S....

    Anna Seida same for me in Branson, MO first time i heard it. it took my heart and soul

  25. S.... W....

    I just brought out my Merry Christmas Andy Williams CD....never really Christmas until Andy sings.  Little Alter Boy always brings me to tears. 

    S.... W....

    Susie Wood: The song that makes me BAWL......is "Some children see Him."

  26. J.... W....

    I love Andy Williams but I prefer Karen Carpenter's version better,  it's more emotional.

    J.... W....

    +Justin W : me too !!!

    J.... W....

    Jana hat so? Karen's is superiour.

    J.... W....

    Karen is not superior what are u a stan? she sings good for a female vocalist and andy has long lasting reputation that surpass karen. No love taken from karen i like some of her songs too.

    J.... W....

    Steel haha...even Andy Williams told you: °Karen Carpenter".

    J.... W....

    I find it very hard to choose between the two, myself. They are both incredibly beautiful.

  27. i.... ....

    Can't believe he's been gone 2 years. I'll listen to this song until the day I die myself.

    i.... ....

    Me too! Such a wonderful song of Christmas!

  28. M.... K....

    I woke up with this song on my heart this morning.

  29. A.... G....

    Dan Savage is right: it's like a pedophile priest's personal theme song...

    A.... G....

    Hello Andyin Seattle,...You use the terminology of "pediophile Priest", what do you and Dan Savage have to say about all the teachers, men and women, and all the married pastors who rape little girls and boys? And do you know the number of boy friends and  fathers who  rape their own children. And let's not forget all the mothers who stand by without reporting it. Get off this "priest" thing and tell it like it is. Both men and women, fathers and mothers,  single and married need to be mentioned. 

    A.... G....

    As the niece of one of those accused priests, I have to object. His accuser didn't come forward until after he'd been dead for 20+ years and 30+ years after his supposed acts. She filed along in a group with a slick lawyer--7 of the 11 accused priests were long dead--and this suit came about only after the Boston diocese had paid millions in their suit.
    No investigations were done in my uncle's suit--but the Pittsburgh diocese paid $1.5million anyway. You can't tell me this wasn't bogus.
    The next time you read about a pedophile, remember "innocent until PROVEN guilty."
    Only God knows the truth in all of these cases. . .especially these that are just a tad FISHY.

    A.... G....

    @Mary Karnstedt I'm sorry and i will pray for you to forgive them for lying and hurting  your uncl, the other priests and  all your families.

    A.... G....

    you people are sick--this is about christmas music.do you understand this.OMG YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE..AGAIN ITS CHRISTMAS TIME HELLO..
    PEDOPHILERS AND PRIEST.THIS IS NOT A TALK SHOW..

    A.... G....

    every time I see guys like you bring this stuff up I can not help but  noticed how you seem to  enjoy it rather   grossly.

  30. L.... T....

    I got reallly mad last christmas becuse they emoved his video fo the Brandson add

  31. L.... G....

    Beautiful song, beautiful rendition...Thank you Andy...You will never be forgotten.

  32. M.... ....

    I think this is Andys most beautiful song, he may be gone but his music will live on

  33. l.... ....

    One of the true "Treasures" and one that will be greatly missed but never forgotten! RIP Andy.

  34. S.... M....

    I have this album from my parents I grew up listening to this back in the day, thank you for the great memories Andy!

  35. J.... ....

    I will never live a Christmas season without thinking of you, Andy. You've been a blessing to me for as long as I can remember. We'll miss you, sweet man. :)

  36. d.... b....

    rest in peace...bless you Andy!
