Christmas Greetings from The Journey
Wishing You a Blessed Christmas and New YearSome Children See Him
By Alfred Burt
Some children see Him lily white the infant Jesus born this nightSome children see Him lily whitewith tresses soft and fair
Some children see Him bronzed and brownthe Lord of heav'n to earth come downSome children see Him bronzed and brownwith dark and heavy hair (with dark and heavy hair!)
Some children see Him almond-eyedThis Saviour whom we kneel besideSome children see Him almond-eyedWith skin of yellow hue!
Some children see Him dark as theySweet Mary's Son to whom we praySome children see Him dark as theyAnd, ah! they love Him so!
The children in each different placeWill see the Baby Jesus' faceLike theirs but bright with heav'nly graceAnd filled with holy light!
O lay aside each earthly thingand with thy heart as offeringCome worship now the infant King'tis love that's born tonight!
'tis love that's born tonight!
