We Three Kings
[Verse 1]
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain
Moor and mountain
Following yonder star
[Refrain]
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
[Verse 2]
Born a King on Bethlehem plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign
[Refrain]
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
[Verse 3]
Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity night:
Prayer and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God on high
[Refrain]
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
[Verse 4]
Myrrh is mine; it's bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone cold tomb
[Refrain]
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
[Verse 5]
Glorious now and behold Him arise
King and God, and sacrifice;
Heaven sings Alleluia;
Alleluia the earth replies
[Refrain]
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
