Lyrics Sample
We Kings have journeyed far.
We’re following a star.
It leads us onward, clear and bright,
Lighting up our darkest night.
We Kings have journeyed far.
We’re following a star.
See the gifts we bring, presents for a King.
Gold and frankincense and myrrh.
Following a star, travelling afar,
Leads us to the holy baby.
We’ve travelled from the East,
A thousand miles at least.
We’ve crossed all deserts, land and seas
Searching for the Prince of Peace.
We’ve travelled from the East,
A thousand miles at least.
A child is born today.
A star lights up his way.
And soon we'll kneel to the infant king,
Offering the gifts we bring...
