Wise Men Still Seek Him
Before the precious Lamb of God
came down to dwell on earth,
Before the angel choruses
proclaimed His royal birth,
Before the bright and shining star
illumined where He lay,
Before the shepherds worshipped Jesus
on His bed of hay,
Some wise men there were waiting
as they watched the eastern sky,
For promised signs to signal
that His birth was truly nigh.
He came to be a sacrifice
for all the sins of men,
And when he rose up from the grave,
He said, "I'll come again."
He promised He would take
His children home to Heaven's shore,
Where there will be no sorrow --
only joy forevermore.
So still the wise men of today
are looking to the sky,
And longing for the time
when their redemption will draw nigh.
No man can know the day or hour
when Jesus will return,
But for that blessed homeward journey,
hearts still wait and yearn.
He wants us to be ready,
with our lamps all trimmed and bright,
As daily we walk close to Him,
by faith and not by sight.
Perhaps today will be the day
when we shall see His face,
And bow in humble gratitude
for all His love and grace.
The night is almost over,
and the dawn is breaking fast,
So we must walk in faith until
we're with our Lord at last.

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
( Matthew 2:1-3 )(KJV) |
