My love, my pride, my treasure, oh |
|
My wonder new and pleasure, oh |
|
My son, my beauty, ever You |
|
Who am I to bear You here? |
|
The cause of talk and tale am I |
|
The cause of greatest fame am I |
|
The cause of proudest care on high |
|
To have for mine, the king of all |
|
And though You are the king of all |
|
They sent You to the manger stall |
|
Where at Your feet they all shall fall |
|
And glorify my child the king |
|
There shone a star above three kings |
|
To guide them to the king of kings |
|
They held You in their humble arms |
|
And knelt before You until dawn |
|
They gave You myrrh, they gave You gold |
|
Frankincense and gifts untold |
|
They traveled far these gifts to bring |
|
And glorify their newborn king |
|
My love, my pride, my treasure, oh |
|
My wonder new and pleasure, oh |
|
My son, my beauty, ever You |
|
Who am I to bear You here? |
