From the Album: I See A Star
Three Wise Men
Mmm mmm Rise and sing a song of joy for the new-born King.
I'll tell you a story of three wise men,
And a star in the east that called to them,
Said follow me down to Bethlehem
And there you'll find a new-born baby.
They turned to the north, turned to the south,
Turned to the west, and they couldn't see a thing,
But there in the east was a star of glory
That shone its light on the new-born King.
Mmm mmm Rise and sing a song of joy for the new-born King.
Melchior, as the story began,
Had wealth and power at his command,
But he turned his back on the works of man
To bring a gift of gold to the baby.
He turned to the north, turned to the south
Turned to the west and he couldnÕt see a thing,
But there in the east was a star of glory
That shone itÕs light on the new-born king
Mmm mmm Rise and sing a song of joy for the new-born King
Caspar was a man of reason and rhyme
Who studied the wisdom of all mankind,
But he followed his heart instead of his mind
To bring a gift of Myrrh to the baby
He turned to the north, turned to the south
Turned to the west and he couldn't see a thing,
But there in the east was a star of glory
That shone it's light on the new-born king.
Mmm mmm Rise and sing a song of joy for the new-born King.
>From Africa there travelled far
The astronomer called Balthazar.
He followed the path of just one star
To bring frankincense to the baby
He turned to the north, turned to the south
Turned to the west and he couldn't see a thing,
But there in the east was a star of glory
That shone it's light on the new-born king.
Mmm mmm Rise and sing a song of joy for the new-born King
And that is the story of three wise men,
And a star in the east that called to them,
Said follow me down to Bethlehem,
And there you'll find a new-born baby
They turned to the north, turned to the south,
Turned to the west and they couldn't see a thing,
But there in the east was a star of glory
That shone its light on the new-born King
They turned to the north, turned to the south,
Turned to the west and they couldn't see a thing
But there in the east was a star of glory
That shone it's light on the new-born king.
Mmm mmm Rise and sing a song of joy for the new-born King.
