From fields beyond Euphrates and Far Tigris, Princes quit Their Lares, their Penates, and To Palestina flit To seek an Infant Who is the King of ages, Foretold by seers and sages, Of whom, too, Balaam writ. 2. The heav'ns declare the glory of The King of Jewry's birth: A Star doth tell the story of Emmanuel on eart. Swift go the Magi, In fair or froward weather, O'er mountain, rock or heather, O'er desert, frith and firth. 3. As last they kneel afor the Child Whom Mary's arms enfold, And silently adore the Child Lain in a manger cold. Then to the Infant: These Easterlings gan offer The treasure of their coffer Frankincense, myrrh and gold. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z # |
