1 Blessèd, bright and shining star,
Guiding wise men from afar;
Bringing joyful news to earth,
Tidings of a Savior’s birth.
Refrain:
Thrice welcome Jesus!
Blessèd, blessèd Jesus!
Thrice welcome Jesus!
The newborn Savior King!
2 Jesus, may we come to Thee,
Lowly bending on the knee;
Costly gifts we cannot bring,
But we hail Thee, Savior King! [Refrain]
3 Sing, ye angel choirs above;
Sing the wonders of His love;
He who left His throne on high
For a sinful world to die. [Refrain]
4 Jesus, Savior, Lord of all,
Joyful at Thy feet we fall;
Hear, oh hear us, while we sing
Glory to our Savior King! [Refrain]
