A Virgin did come from lowliest home, And shelter she fain in a manger would find; For full was the inn, and no room was within, Save where to the stalls the mute oxen they bind. [Refrain:] O how wondrous the love and the deep humility Of Him who was laid in the manger for me. 2. That Babe was a King, mystic gifts, lo, they bring, Sure tokens they were of some great One to be; To Bethlehem led, Eastern sages have sped From afar "The Desire of all Nations" to see. [Refrain] 3. Accomplished their hope, their treasures they ope- Gold, frankincense, myrrh, to that Infant they brought, Gifts costly and rare, full of meaning they were, Thou not yet unveiled were the great truths they taught. [Refrain] 4. No tokens of state round that Royal Babe wait, Seeming least, and yet greatest of monarchs was He; But in reverence low, princely Magi did bow, As though they divined all His true dignity.
