WE THREE KINGS OF ORIENT ARE
(Key of Em)
(John H. Hopkins)

   Em                B      Em                     B        Em
1. We three kings of Orient are,  bearing gifts we traverse afar,
   Em        D         G                  Am        B      Em
   Field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star.

   D    G               C       G                       C      G
   O,   star of wonder, star of night,  star with loyal beauty bright,
   G        D        C        D        G               C       G
   Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light.

2. Born a King on Bethlehem's plain,  gold I bring to crown Him again,
   King forever, 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 on high.

4. Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume   breaths 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;
   Alleluia, Alleluia!  peals through the earth and skies.
