Drei Könige wandern aus Morgenland; | |||
Ein Sternlein führt sie zum Jordanstrand. | |||
In Juda fragen und forschen die drei, | |||
Wo der neugeborene König sei? | |||
Sie wollen Weihrauch, Myrrhen und Gold | |||
Dem Kinde spenden zum Opfersold. | |||
Und hell erglänzet des Sternes Schein: | |||
Zum Stalle gehen die Kön’ge ein; | |||
Das Knäblein schaun sie wonniglich, | |||
Anbetend neigen die Könige sich; | |||
Sie bringen Weihrauch, Myrrhen und Gold | |||
Zum Opfer dar dem Knäblein hold. | |||
O Menschenkind! halte treulich Schritt! | |||
Die Kön’ge wandern, o wandre mit! | |||
Der Stern der Liebe, der Gnade Stern | |||
Erhelle dein Ziel, so du suchst den Herrn, | |||
Und fehlen Weihrauch, Myrrhen und Gold, | |||
Schenke dein Herz dem Knäblein hold! | |||
'' | ''Choral'' | ||
Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern | |||
voll Gnad und Wahrheit von dem Herrn, | |||
die süße Wurzel Jesse. | |||
Du Sohn Davids aus Jakobs Stamm, | |||
mein König und mein Bräutigam, | |||
hast mir mein Herz besessen; | |||
lieblich, freundlich, | |||
schön und herrlich, | |||
groß und ehrlich, | |||
reich an Gaben, | |||
hoch und sehr prächtig erhaben.}} | |||

''Solo'' | |||
: | Three Kings from Persian lands afar | ||
to Jordan follow the pointing star: | |||
and this the quest of the travellers three, | |||
where the new-born King of the Jews may be. | |||
Full royal gifts they bear for the King; | |||
Gold, incense, myrrh are their offering. | |||
The star shines out with a steadfast ray; | |||
the kings to Bethlehem make their way, | |||
and there in worship they bend the knee, | |||
as Mary’s child in her lap they see; | |||
their royal gifts they show to the King; | |||
gold, incense, myrrh are their offering. | |||
Thou child of man, lo, to Bethlehem | |||
the Kings are travelling, travel with them! | |||
The star of mercy, the star of grace, | |||
shall lead thy heart to its resting place. | |||
Gold, incense, myrrh thou canst not bring; | |||
offer thy heart to the infant King. | |||
''Chorale'' | |||
How brightly shines the morning star! | |||
With grace and truth from heaven afar | |||
our Jesse tree now bloweth. | |||
Of Jacob’s stem and David’s line, | |||
for thee, my Bridegroom, King divine, | |||
my soul with love o’erfloweth. | |||
Thy word, Jesu, inly feeds us, | |||
rightly leads us, life bestowing. | |||
Praise, O praise such love o’erflowing.}} | |||
