Author: G. Thring Meter: 6.5.6.5 D with refrain Appears in 164 hymnals Matching Instances: 9 First Line: From the Eastern mountains Lyrics: 1 From the eastern mountains Pressing on they come, Wise men in their wisdom, To His humble home; Stirred in deep devotion, Hasting from afar, Ever journeying onward, Guided by a star. Refrain: Light of light that shineth Ere the worlds began, Draw Thou near, and lighten Ev'ry heart of man. 2 There their Lord and Saviour Meek and lowly lay, Wondrous Light that led them Onward on their way, Ever now to lighten Nations from afar, As they journey homeward By that guiding Star. [Refrain] 3 Thou Who in a manger Once hast lowly lain, Who dost now in glory O'er all kingdoms reign, Gather in the heathen, Who in lands afar Ne'er have seen the brightness Of Thy guiding Star. [Refrain] 4 Gather in the outcasts, All who've gone astray, Throw Thy radiance o'er them, Guide them on their way, Those who never knew Thee, Those who've wandered far, Lead them by the brightness Of Thy guiding Star. [Refrain] 5 Onward through the darkness Of the lonely night, Shining still before them With Thy kindly light, Guide them, Jew and Gentile, Homeward from afar, Young and old together, By Thy guiding Star. [Refrain] 6 Until every nation. Whether bond or free, 'Neath Thy starlit banner, Jesu, follows Thee O'er the distant mountains To that heavenly home, Where no sin nor sorrow Evermore shall come. [Refrain] Amen. Topics: Epiphany; Missions; Processionals Epiphany Used With Tune: VALOUR
