Lo! the pilgrim Magi Leave their Royal Halls, And, with love devoutest, Bethlehem's lowly walls Seek with eager footsteps; While firm faith which rests, Built on hope unswerving, Triumphs in their breasts! 2. O what joys extatic Thrilled each heart, from far, When, to guide their footsteps, Gleamed that Beacon Star, O'er that home so holy Pouring down its ray, In His mother's bosom Where the Infant lay! 3. There no ivory glistens, Glows no regal gold, Nor doth gorgeous purple Those fair limbs enfold; But His Court He keepeth In a stable bare, His Throne is a manger Rags His purple are. 4. Costly pomps and pageants Earthly kings array; He, a mightier Monarch, Hath a nobler sway; Straw though be His pallet, Mean His garb may be, Yet with power transcendent He all hearts can free! 5. At His crib they worship Prostrate on the floor; And a God, there present, In that Babe adore; Let us to that Infant We, their offspring true Hearts, with faith o'erflowing Give, our tribute due. 6. Holiest Love presenting As gold, to our King; To the Man pure bodies; Myrrh-like, chastely bring, Unto Him, as Incense, Vow and prayer address; So with offerings meetest, This our God confess! 7. Glory to the Father, Fount of Light alone; Who unto the Gentiles Made His Glory known; Equal praise and merit Blessed Son, to Thee; And to Thee, sweet Spirit, Evermore shall be!
