Some Children See Him

James Taylor

Transposer:

[Verse 1] Some children see Him lily white The baby Jesus born this night. Some children see Him lily white With tresses soft and fair. Some children see Him bronzed and brown The Lord of heav’n to earth come down. Some children see Him bronzed and brown With dark and heavy hair. [Verse 2] Some children see Him almond-eyed This Saviour whom we kneel beside. Some children see Him almond-eyed With skin of yellow hue. Some children see Him dark as they Sweet Mary’s Son to whom we pray. Some children see him dark as they And ah! they love Him too! [Verse 3] The children in each different place Will see the baby Jesus’ face Like theirs but bright with heavenly grace And filled with holy light. O lay aside each earthly thing And with thy heart as offering Come worship now the infant King. ’Tis love that’s born tonight!

La chanson évoque la manière dont les enfants voient la figure de Jésus, chacun à travers le prisme de sa propre culture et de son identité. Selon les enfants, il est représenté avec des traits différents, que ce soit en étant blanc, bronzé, ou d'autres couleurs de peau, ce qui montre la beauté de la diversité dans notre perception du divin. Elle nous rappelle également l'importance de déposer nos préoccupations terrestres pour nous ouvrir à la grâce et à la lumière spirituelle que représente l’enfant Jésus. En fin de compte, peu importe l’apparence qu’il a pour nous, c’est l'amour qui se manifeste à travers sa naissance qui prime, nous invitant tous à célébrer avec nos coeurs unis dans la foi.
