As they tell the wond'rous story And proclaim the Heav'nly King For in David's royal city, Unto us a child is born, And to us a Son is given, On this happy Christmas morn. 2. Trustfully the sages sought Him When they saw the star arise, Beaming brightly, beckoning onward, Moving through the Eastern skies. And above a lowly stable Soon it rested, shining clear; Entering, the wise men found Him In a manger rough and drear. 3. Precious gifts of gold and spices From the Orient they brought; Low in adoration, bending To the King whose throne they sought. In no robe of royal purple Was he clothed, as princes wear, But in humblest garb, the Saviour Came our earthly lot to share. 4. As the wise men brought their treasures, Offering them on bended knee, So may we our prayer and praises Ever offer, Lord, to Thee. Let us then, with glad Hosannas, Sing His praise with sweet accord, Who was born this day to save us: Jesus, Saviour, Christ, the Lord.
