We Three Kings |
|
We three kings of Orient are |
Bearing gifts, we traverse afar |
Field and fountain, moor and mountain |
Following yonder star |
|
O, star of wonder, star of night |
Star with royal beauty bright |
Westward leading, still proceeding |
Guide us to thy perfect light |
|
Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain |
Gold I bring to crown Him again |
King forever, ceasing never |
Over us all to reign |
|
Frankincense to offer have I |
Incense owns a Deity night |
Prayer and praising, voices raising |
Worship Him, God on high |
|
Myrrh is mine: its bitter perfume |
Breathes a life of gathering gloom; |
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, |
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb |
|
Glorious now behold Him arise |
King and God and Sacrifice; |
Alleluia, Alleluia! |
Peals through the earth and skies |
|
