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.
Can I ask you what BYU stands for?
42awww Brigham Young University
Same. Easy top 10 choir songs
This song boutta make me turn Christian 😩😩😩
I highly recommend Christianity - it's great!
Do it!
Sounds Heavenly!!! Glory to Jesus Name!!!
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.
It still makes me teary every year. Best rendition of the song in my opinion 🌟 🌟 🌟
The Egyptian/Middle Eastern flute thingy at the start was very reminiscent of Raiders of the Lost Ark.
It's an oboe
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.
Love that ending. I've never heard a version that tells the story better
Beautiful! I play this song every Christmastime. Thank you very much, and may God bless you all.
I've been waiting for this song to be published since we first sang it! One of my favorites!
This was my first song that I learnt in life during my kindergarten.. today I am 46 and yet can't forget it. A song inscribed on my heart and soul.
Yes... mighty good. Fantastic harmony.

Hello!!!! Is there sheet music available for this?!?!
Jessica, you can go on cjmadsenmusic.com to request the sheet music. :)
He also has an SATB of this arrangement. Just "contact the composer" on the website to ask.
The red skirt was out of place.
