We Three Kings of Orient Are

Author: John H.

[Refrain] 3 Frankincense to offer have I, incense owns a deity nigh; prayer and praying, voices raising, worshiping God on high. [Refrain] 4 Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume breathes a life of gathering gloom: sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying; sealed in the stone cold tomb. [Refrain] 5 Glorious now behold him arise, King and God and Sacrifice; Alleluia! Alleluia! sounds through the earth and skies.

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1830-1869 Hymnal: HOP2015 #162 (2015) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I long to take my stand-- the shadow of a mighty Rock within a weary land, a home within the wilderness, a rest upon the way, from the burning of the noontide heat, and the burden of the day. 2 Upon that cross of Jesus my eyes at times can see the very dying form of One who suffered there for me; and from my smitten heart with tears two wonders I confess-- the wonders of redeeming love and my unworthiness. 3 I take, O cross, your shadow for my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than the sunshine of his face, content to let the world go by, to know no gain nor loss, my sinful self my only shame, my glory all the cross.
