Long ago the glorious Christmas star Guided wise men from afar, To the little town of Bethlehem, To the Savior of all men. Over hill, across the desert sand, Slowly t'ward 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.
