Some Children See Him

Some children see Him lily white
The baby Jesus born this night
Some children see Him as lily white
With tresses soft and fair

Some children see Him bronzed and brown
The Lord of Heaven to earth come down
Some children see Him bronzed and brown
With dark and heavy hair

Some children see Him almond-eyed
This baby whom we kneel beside
Some children see Him almond-eyed
With skin of golden hue

Some children see Him dark as they
Sweet Mary's Son to whom we pray
Those children see Him dark as they
And oh they love Him too

The children in each different place
Will see the baby Jesus face
Like theirs, but with a Heavenly grace
And filled with holy light

Oh lay aside these earthly things
And with thy heart as an offering, Lord
Come worship now the Heavenly King
'Tis love that's born

Away in the manger, no crib for this babe
'Tis love that's born tonight
Tonight
