Vánoční píseň o tom, jak se tři králové z Orientu přišli poklonit nemluvňátku do Betléma.
Illustrated by *Markéta Vydrová
We three kings of Orient are; *1*1
Bearing gifts we traverse afar, *2*2
Field and fountain, moor and mountain, *3*3
Following yonder star. *4*4
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain *5*5
Gold I bring to crown Him again, *6*6
King forever, ceasing never, *7*7
Over us all to reign. *8*8
O star of wonder, star of night, *9*9
Star with royal beauty bright, *10*10
Westward leading, still proceeding, *11*11
Guide us to thy perfect light. *12*12
Frankincense to offer have I; *13*13
Incense owns a Deity nigh; *14*14
Prayer and praising, voices raising, *15*15
Worshipping God on high. *16*16
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume *17*17
Breathes a life of gathering gloom; *18*18
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, *19*19
Sealed in the stone cold tomb. *20*20
O star of wonder, star of night, *21*21
Star with royal beauty bright, *22*22
Westward leading, still proceeding, *23*23
Guide us to thy perfect light. *24*24
Glorious now behold Him arise; *25*25
King and God and sacrifice; *26*26
Alleluia, Alleluia, *27*27
Sounds through the earth and skies. *28*28
O star of wonder, star of night, *29*29
Star with royal beauty bright, *30*30
Westward leading, still proceeding, *31*31
Guide us to thy perfect light. *32*32
