We Three Kings of Orient Are

Author: John H. Hopkins Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #134 (1980) Refrain First Line: O star of wonder, star of night Lyrics: 1 We three kings of Orient are, Bearing gifts we traverse afar Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star. Chorus: 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. (Chorus) 3 Frankincense to offer have I: Incense owns a Deity nigh; Prayer and praising, we are raising, Worship Him, God on high. (Chorus) 4 Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume Breathes a life of gathering gloom; Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, Sealed in the stone-cold tomb. (Chorus) 5 Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and Sacrifice; Alleluia, Alleluia! Peals through the earth and skies.
