first_line1. We three kings of Orient are
lyric1. 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

2. Born a king on Bethlehem plain
Gold I bring, to crown him again
King for ever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign

3. Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God must high

4. Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb

5. Glorious now, behold Him arise
King, and God, and sacrifice
Heaven sings alleluya
Alleluya the earth replies
