O'er the hill and o'er the vale Come three kings together, Caring nought for snow and hail, Cold, and wind, and weather; Now on Persia's sandy plains, Now where Tigris swells with rains, They their camels tether; Now through Syrian lands they go, Now through Moab, faint and slow, Now through Edom's heather. 2. O'er the hill and o'er the vale, Each king bears a present: Wise men go a Child to hail, Monarchs seek a peasant; And a star in front proceeds, Over rocks and rivers leads, Shines with beams incessant. Therefore onward, onward still! Ford the stream and climb the hills: Love makes all things pleasant. 3. He is God ye go to meet; Therefore incense proffer. He is King ye go to greet: Gold is in your coffer. Also Man He comes to share Every woe that man can bear. Tempter, Railer, Scoffer; Therefore now against the day, In the grave where Him they lay, Myrrh ye also offer. 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 # |
