Peter Cornelius feat. Choir of King's College, Cambridge & David Willcocks - Cornelius: Weihnachtslieder, Op. 8: No. 3, The Kings Lyrics

Lyrics Cornelius: Weihnachtslieder, Op. 8: No. 3, The Kings - Choir of King's College, Cambridge , Peter Cornelius



Three Kings from Persian lands afar
To Jordan follow the pointing star
And this the quest of the travelers three
Where the newborn King of the Jews may be
Full royal gifts they bear for the King
Gold, incense, myrrh are their offering
The star shines out with a steadfast ray
The kings to Bethlehem make their way
And then in worship they bend the knee
As Mary′s child in her lap they see
Their royal gifts they show to the King
Gold, incense, myrrh are their offering
Thou child of man, lo, to Bethlehem
The Kings are traveling, travel with them
The star of mercy, the star of grace
Shall lead thy heart to its resting place
Gold, incense, myrrh, thou canst not bring
Offer thy heart to the infant King
Offer thy heart



Writer(s): John Henry Hopkins, Peter Cornelius
