Jesus To A Child.
I used to sing this song very well and today I have to relearn this song again. This is one of the rare song I have selected from the album titled Older.
"Jesus to a Child" is a song by British singer George Michael. The song peaked at number one in the United Kingdom[2] and Australia, and at number 2 in the mainland European charts. The song has also become George Michael's highest-direct entry in the American charts. The song is one of George Michael's best-known songs and was included on the 1996 album Older. It was a melancholy tribute to his lover Anselmo Feleppa.

From: Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia.
"Jesus to a Child" was the first of six singles from the album Older. It was Michael's sixth UK number one, although only the third as an entirely solo performer.
After Michael's death in 2016, Dame Esther Rantzen, founder of the charity ChildLine, revealed that Michael had secretly donated all of the single's royalties to the charity. She said "George helped us to reach out to hundreds of thousands of children through his generosity. I met him a couple of times, he approached us, rather than us going cap in hand to him, but it was an intensely personal gift. He didn’t want it to be known or to be part of his image."[3] She told BBC News that "he really wanted to keep his help secret, it was an intensely personal gift. It meant we could answer more children."[4]
The song was Michael's first self-penned hit in his homeland for almost four years and entered the UK Singles Chart straight at No. 1 in January 1996. It became his first solo single to enter the UK Singles Chart at the top,[1] his first solo No. 1 from a studio album (all his previous solo No. 1s had been one-off projects, either during the Wham! years or as a guest or co-vocalist) and, on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, it became the highest new entry (No. 7) by a British artist for more than 25 years. It was also Michael's longest UK Top 40 single at almost seven minutes long.
The song was a melancholy tribute to Michael's Brazilian lover Anselmo Feleppa, whom he met when performing in Rio de Janeiro in 1991. Feleppa died two years later from an AIDS-related brain haemorrhage. Michael had been unable to write for the next 18 months as a consequence of his grief, but then penned the words to "Jesus to a Child" in little more than an hour, indicating that the time was right to move on with his life. The song is written with a rhythm and harmony that is influenced by the Brazilian bossa nova style.
The exact identity of the song's subject—and the nature of their relationship—was cause for a certain amount of innuendo at the time, as Michael had not confirmed his homosexuality and did not do so until 1998. Until his death on Christmas Day 2016,[5] Michael would consistently dedicate the song to Feleppa before performing it live.

Song Lyrics
Kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
I'm blessed, I know
Heaven sent, heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought I never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again
But now I know
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there is no hope in sight
Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed, well no one tried
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breathe you saved my soul
You smiled at me
Like, Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
Then just when it began
He took your love away
But I still say
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Comfort you when there is no hope in sight
So the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you
And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be
My love
Well I've been loved
So I know just what love is
And the lover that I kissed is always by my side
Oh, the lover I still miss
Was Jesus to a child
