That So Thy Blessed Birth

1. That so Thy blessed Birth, O Christ,
Might thro' the world be spread about,
The Star appeared in the East,
Whereby the Gentiles found Thee out;
And offered Thee Myrrh, Incense, Gold,
Thy three-fold Office to unfold.

2. Sweet Jesus, let that Star of Thine,
Thy Grace, which guides to find out Thee,
Within our hearts for ever shine,
That Thou of us found out mayest be;
And Thou shalt be our King therefore,
Our Priest and Prophet Evermore!

3. Tears that from true repentance drop,
Instead of myrrh, present will we:
For Incense we will offer up
Our prayers and praises unto Thee;
And bring for gold each pious deed,
Which doth from saving faith proceed.

4. And as those Wise Men never went
To visit Herod any more;
So, finding Thee, we will repent
Our courses followed heretofore;
And that we homeward may retire,
The way by Thee we will enquire.
