:::''1.'' :As with gladness, men of old :Did the guiding star behold :As with joy they hailed its light :Leading onward, beaming bright :So, most glorious Lord, may we :Evermore be led to Thee. :::''2.'' :As with joyful steps they sped :To that lowly manger bed :There to bend the knee before :Him Whom Heaven and earth adore; :So may we with willing feet :Ever seek Thy mercy seat. :::''3.'' :As they offered gifts most rare :At that manger rude and bare; :So may we with holy joy, :Pure and free from sin’s alloy, :All our costliest treasures bring, :Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King. :::''4.'' :Holy Jesus, every day :Keep us in the narrow way; :And, when earthly things are past, :Bring our ransomed souls at last :Where they need no star to guide, :Where no clouds Thy glory hide. :::''5.'' :In the heavenly country bright, :Need they no created light; :Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown, :Thou its Sun which goes not down; :There forever may we sing :Alleluias to our King!
