Epiphany Crib

From the eastern mountains pressing on they come,
Wise men in their wisdom, to his humble home;
Stirred by deep devotion, hasting from afar,
Ever journey onward, guided by a star.
There their Lord and Saviour meek and lowly lay,
Wondrous light that led them onward on their way,
Ever now to lighten nations from afar,
As they journey homeward by that guiding star.
(Godfrey Thring)
