We Three Kings

We three kings of Orient are; 
bearing gifts we traverse afar,
field and fountain, moor and mountain,
following yonder star.
Refrain: 
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain, 
gold I bring to crown him again,
King forever, ceasing never,
over us all to reign.
(Refrain)
Frankincense to offer have I; 
incense owns a Deity nigh;
prayer and praising, voices raising,
worshiping God on high.
(Refrain)
Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume 
breathes a life of gathering gloom;
sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
(Refrain)
Glorious now behold him arise; 
King and God and sacrifice:
Alleluia, Alleluia,
sounds through the earth and skies.
(Refrain)
