|
|
<p>Saw you never, in the twilight,<br>
|
|
When the sun had left the skies,<br>
|
|
Up in heav’n the clear stars shining<br>
|
|
Through the gloom, like silver eyes?<br>
|
|
So of old the wise men, watching,<br>
|
|
Saw a little stranger star,<br>
|
|
And they knew the King was given,<br>
|
|
And they followed it from afar.</p>
|
|
<p>Heard you never of the story<br>
|
|
How they crossed the desert wild,<br>
|
|
Journeyed on by plain and mountain,<br>
|
|
Till they found the holy Child?<br>
|
|
How they opened all their treasure,<br>
|
|
Kneeling to that infant King;<br>
|
|
Gave the gold and fragrant incense,<br>
|
|
Gave the myrrh in offering?</p>
|
|
<p>Know ye not that lowly Baby<br>
|
|
Was the bright and morning Star?<br>
|
|
He Who came to light the Gentiles,<br>
|
|
And the darkened isles afar?<br>
|
|
And we, too, may seek His cradle;<br>
|
|
There our hearts’ best treasures bring;<br>
|
|
Love, and faith, and true devotion<br>
|
|
For our Savior, God and King.</p>
