There’s a beautiful star,
a beautiful star,
The weary travelers have followed far,
Shining so brightly all the way,
Till it stood o’er the place
where the young Child lay.
Star, star, beautiful star!
Pilgrims weary we are;
To Jesus, to Jesus,
We follow thee from afar.
In the land of the East,
in the shadows of night,
We saw the glory of thy new light,
Telling us, in our distant home,
The King-Redeemer
to earth hath come!
Star, star, beautiful star!
Pilgrims weary we are;
To Jesus, to Jesus,
We follow thee from afar.
We have gold for tribute
and gifts for prayer,
Incense of myrrh, and spices rare:
All that we have, we hither bring,
To lay it with joy at the feet of the King.
Star, star, beautiful star!
Pilgrims weary we are;
To Jesus, to Jesus,
We follow thee from afar.
