    Lyrics:
    We three kings of orient are,
    Bearing gifts we traverse afar
    Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
    Following yonder star.
    Oh, star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright.
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect light.
    Born a King on Bethlehem's plain,
    Gold I bring to crown him again
    King for ever, ceasing never
    Over us all to reign.
    Frankincense to offer have I, incense owns a Deity nigh
    Prayer and praising, voices raising,
    Worship him, God most high (worship him, God most high).
    Oh, star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright.
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect light.
    Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
    Breathes of life of gathering gloom
    Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
    Sealed in the stone-cold tomb
    Glorious now behold Him arise
    King and God and Sacrifice
    Alleluia, Alleluia
    Rings through the Earth and skies
    Star of wonder, star of night
    Star with royal beauty bright
    Westward leading, still proceeding
    Guide us (guide us)
    Guide us (guide us)
    To Thy perfect light!

    I still get chills, years after singing this with the Men’s Chorus. This is one of the most powerful songs I sang, in my four years with the choir. The slow, bitter moments are only made more powerful by the glory of the truth in the finale. Thank you so much, Sister Hall, for cultivating the Spirit of this piece.

    I get chills listening to this every time I listen to it. So glad I got to be a part of it, and so glad that it got published. Incredible work by Rosalind Hall, the fantastic director. Fantastic work by CJ Madsen in the arrangement of this piece. Such an emotional and meaningful rendition of the song that really brings out the meaning.

    The Egyptian/Middle Eastern flute thingy at the start was very reminiscent of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

    Many have taken a detour from the route of the Star. Oh Divine Star of Jesus re-route the navigation that we will always find our way back to Jesus like the Magi.

      He also has an SATB of this arrangement. Just "contact the composer" on the website to ask.
