Happy Epiphany!
Well, given the day, my subject of posting seems quite obvious given that I've been lingering with Christmas carols for the past few weeks. With the usual disclaimers of accuracy, let's bring on “We Three Kings” to wrap up the festival of carols. Just for Ed, I'll include the whole thing, too.
Happy Epiphany, and, once more for this season, Merry Christmas!
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder starO Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy Perfect LightBorn a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reinO Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect lightFrankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Pray'r and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God most highO Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect lightMyrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tombO Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect lightGlorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heav'n repliesO Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
