Lyrics with chords

Am We three kings of E7 Orient Am are;

bearing gifts we E7 traverse aAm far,

G field and C fountain, Dm moor and Am mountain,

F following E7 yonder Am star.

G7 O star of C wonder, F star of C night,

star with royal F beauty C bright,

westward F leading, C still proF ceeding,

C guide us G7 to thy C perfect light.

Am Born a King on E7 Bethlehem Am plain,

gold I bring to E7 crown Him aAm gain,

G King forC ever, Dm ceasing Am never,

F over us E7 all to Am reign.

G7 O star of C wonder, F star of C night,

star with royal F beauty C bright,

westward F leading, C still proF ceeding,

C guide us G7 to thy C perfect light.

Am Frankincense to E7 offer have Am I;

incense owns a E7 Deity Am nigh;

G prayer and C praising, Dm all men Am raising,

F worship Him E7 God on Am high.

G7 O star of C wonder, F star of C night,

star with royal F beauty C bright,

westward F leading, C still proF ceeding,

C guide us G7 to thy C perfect light.

Am Glorious now beE7 hold Him aAm rise;

King and God and E7 sacriAm fice;

G Heav’n sings C HalleDm luAm jah:

F Hallelujah the E7 earth reAm plies.

G7 O star of C wonder, F star of C night,

star with royal F beauty C bright,

westward F leading, C still proF ceeding,

C guide us G7 to thy C perfect light.
