\nFrom the eastern mountains Pressing on they come,
\nWise men in their wisdom, To His humble home;
\nStirred by deep devotion, Hasting from afar,
\nEver journeying onward, Guided by a star.<\/p>\n
2
\nThere their Lord and Savior Meek and lowly,
\nWondrous light that led them Onward on their way,
\nEver now to lighten Nations from afar,
\nAs they journey homeward By that guiding star.<\/p>\n
3
\nGather in the outcasts All who’ve gone astray,
\nThrow Thy radiance o’er them, Guide them on their way;
\nThose who never knew Thee, Those who’ve wandered far,
\nGuide them by the brightness Of Thy guiding star.<\/p>\n
4
\nUntil every nation, Whether bond or free,
\n‘Neath Thy starlit banner, Jesus follows thee.
\nO’er the distant mountains To that heavenly home,
\nWhere no sin nor sorrow Evermore shall come.<\/p>\n
