Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #180 (1918) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The Star proclaims the King is here;
But, Herod, why this senseless fear?
He takes no realms of earth away
Who gives the realms of heavenly day.
2 The wiser Magi see from far
And follow on His guiding star;
And led by light to light they press,
And by their gifts their God confess.
3 Within the Jordan's crystal flood
In meekness stands the Lamb of God,
And sinless sanctifies the wave,
Mankind from sin to cleanse and save.
4 At Cana first His power is shown;
His might the blushing waters own,
And changing, as He speaks the word,
Flow wine, obedient to their Lord.
5 All glory, Jesus, be to Thee
For this Thy glad Epiphany:
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Ghost for evermore. Topics: Epiphany Languages: English
