Who Are These Who Ride By Starlight

1. Who are these who ride by starlight
From the corners of the earth,
Leaving home, forsaking comfort,
Drawn to one mysterious birth?
These are wise men seeking wisdom,
Disciplined to watch and pray;
We will read the signs and follow,
See where Christ is born today.

2. Who is this who hears the wise men,
Trembling while their tale is told,
Sending troops to slaughter blindly,
Crush what cannot be controlled?
This is Herod, every Herod
Building power by others' pain;
We will mourn the murdered children
While their blood is shed again.

3. Who is this, a homeless exile,
Destined from his earliest hour
For rejection, conflict, danger,
Marked for death by worldly power?
Jesus, born to show God's glory
Shining through despair and loss,
We will know you when we meet you
By the shadow of your cross.
