lyrics

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.

O Star of wonder, star of night!
Star with royal beauty bright.
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Frankincense to offer have I.
Incense owns a Deity nigh.
Prayer and praising, all men raising,
Worship Him, God most high

O Star of wonder, star of night!
Star with royal beauty bright.
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to Thy perfect light.

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume,
Breathes of life of gathering gloom.
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying.
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.

O Star of wonder, star of night!
Star with royal beauty bright.
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to Thy perfect light.

Glorious now behold Him arise.
King and God and Sacrifice.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Earth to heav'n replies.

O Star of wonder, star of night!
Star with royal beauty bright.
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to Thy perfect light.
