Wise Men Still Seek...

From the East the Wise Men came
In hurried westward flight;
Across the desert sands they rode,
Led by the Star's pure light.

They carried with them precious gifts
Fit for a newborn King;
The Star proclaimed His royal birth,
A truly wondrous thing.

They sought Him in a palace grand;
The Star stood still instead
Above a lowly bed of straw
Within a cattle shed.

But oh, they knew He was their King
In awesome wonder there;
They laid their treasures at His feet
And humbly knelt in prayer.

On this night of our Savior's birth,
Unknown the path ahead,
Wise men with faith their guiding star
Still seek the manger bed.

Kay Hoffman

They were overjoyed at seeing the star.
Matthew 2:10
