WHEN wise men came seeking for Jesus from far,
With rich gifts to greet him and led by a star,
They found in a stable the Saviour of men,
A manger his cradle, so poor was he then.
2 Though laid in a manger he came from a throne,
On earth though a stranger in Heaven he was known.
How lowly, how gracious his coming to earth!
His love my love kindles to joy in his birth.
Richard
