We Three Kings/What Child Is This
We three kings of Orient are bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain- following yonder star
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain- gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never over us all to reign
Star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Frankincense to offer have I- incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising, all men raising, worship Him, God on high
Myrrh is mine its bitter perfume breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, sealed in the stone-cold tomb
O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Glorious now behold Him arise- King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, alleluia, earth to heaven replies
O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
What child is this, who laid to rest, on Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping
Why lies He in such mean estate where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here the silent Word is pleading
This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laude, the babe, the son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh, Come peasant, king, to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone Him
This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laude, the babe, the son of Mary
This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laude, the babe, the son of Mary
We three kings of Orient are
We three kings of Orient are
We three king of Orient are
Field and fountain, moor and mountain- following yonder star
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain- gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never over us all to reign
Star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Frankincense to offer have I- incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising, all men raising, worship Him, God on high
Myrrh is mine its bitter perfume breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, sealed in the stone-cold tomb
O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Glorious now behold Him arise- King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, alleluia, earth to heaven replies
O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
Star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
What child is this, who laid to rest, on Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping
Why lies He in such mean estate where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here the silent Word is pleading

Haste, haste to bring Him laude, the babe, the son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laude, the babe, the son of Mary
This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laude, the babe, the son of Mary
We three kings of Orient are
We three kings of Orient are
We three king of Orient are
