We Three Kings of Orient Are

Author: John H. Hopkins Hymnal: Christmas Songs #23 (1955) Lyrics: 1 We three kings from 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. 2 Born a King on Bethlehem's plain, Gold I bring to crown Him again; King forever, ceasing never, Over us all to reign. [Refrain] 3 Frankincense to offer have I, Incense owns a Deity nigh; Prayer and praising, all men raising, Worship Him, God on high. [Refrain] 4 Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume Breathes a life of gathering gloom: Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, Sealed in the stone-cold tomb. [Refrain] 5 Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and Sacrifice; Alleluia, Alleluia! Peals through the earth and skies. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: KINGS OF ORIENT
