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 might,
|
Star with royal beauty bright,
|
Westward leading, still proceeding,
|
Guide us to the perfect light.
|
|
Born a babe on Bethlehem's plain;
|
Gold we bring to crown Him again;
|
King forever, ceasing never,
|
Over us all to reign.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Frankincense to offer have I;
|
Incense owns a Deity nigh;
|
Prayer and praising, all men raising,
|
Worship Him, God on High.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Myrrth is mine: its bitter perfume
|
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
|
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
|
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Glorious Now Behold Him Arise
|
King and God and Sacrifice
|
Alleluia, Alleluia
|
Earth to heaven replies
|
