This musical event is the 31st performance sponsored by the BYU School of Music for the 2018–2019 season.

We three kings of Orient are, Bearing gifts, we traverse a far, Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star.

CHORUS O star of wonder, star of light, Star with royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light.

Born a King, on Bethlehem’s plain, Gold I bring to crown Him again, King forever, ceasing never, Over us all to reign. CHORUS

Frankincense to offer have I, Incense owns a Deity nigh, Prayer and praising, all men raising, Worship Him, God most high. CHORUS

Myrhh is mine, its bitter perfume Breathes a life of gathering gloom, Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying, Sealed in the stone-cold tomb. CHORUS

Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and sacrifice, Alleluja! Alleluja! Earth to the heav’n replies. CHORUS

We Three Kings
