137. We Three Kings

SDA Hymnal

Verse 1

We three kings of Orient are;

Bearing gifts we traverse afar

Field and fountain, moor and mountain,

Following yonder star.

Chorus 1

Oh, 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's plain;

Gold I bring to crown Him again,

King forever, ceasing never

Over us all to reign.

Chorus 3

Oh, star of wonder, star of night,

Star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

Guide us to Thy perfect light.

Verse 4

Frankincense to offer have I;

Incense owns a Deity nigh;

Prayer and praising all men raising,

Worship Him, God on high.

Chorus 5

Oh, star of wonder, star of night,

Star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

Guide us to Thy perfect light.

Verse 6

Myrrh is mine: its bitter perfume

Breathes a life of gathering gloom:

Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,

Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.

Chorus 7

Oh, star of wonder, star of night,

Star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

Guide us to Thy perfect light.

Verse 8

Glorious now behold Him arise,

King and God and Sacrifice;

Alleluia, alleluia!

Sounds through the earth and skies.

Chorus 9

Oh, star of wonder, star of night,

Star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

Guide us to Thy perfect light.
