Text Based On Matthew Chapter 2
And when they were come into the house,
they saw the young child with Mary his mother,
and fell down, and worshipped him:
and when they had opened their treasures,
they presented unto him gifts; gold, and
frankincense, and myrrh.
The Wisemen
Long ago the bright and glorious star
Guided wise men from afar,
To the city of Jerusalem,
To the Savior of all men
Over hill, across the desert sand,
Slowly toward the Holy Land,
With them precious loving gifts they bring,
Asking for the newborn King.
When they saw the Child they all rejoiced,
Worshipped Him with tender voice,
Bowing low, presented gifts of love
To the Christ-child from above.
