Lyrics
Deep in the night, A long time ago
A star so bright, On a night so cold
A scroll, old and brittle, A new king foretold
Friends by my side, and a long way to go.
Ask the scroll where were going, As we travel afar
To that distant fair city, as we follow that star
With treasures to carry, with gifts now we bring
To bow in the presence of the king of all kings.
A year on the road, weary and worn
Reached the far city, Treasures we bring
Asked at the palace, to see the new king
But confusion, and anger, there wasnt one born.
Ask the scroll where were going, As we travel afar
To that distant fair city, as we follow that star
With treasures to carry, with gifts now we bring
To bow in the presence of the king of all kings.
The star beckoned still, we followed its call
A house and a child, Gifts now to give
Crowns at his feet, A new life now to live
For this king of all kings, this ruler of all.
Ask the scroll where were going, As we travel afar
To that distant fair city, as we follow that star
With treasures to carry, with gifts now we bring
To bow in the presence of the king of all kings.
Time passes on, the years come and go
I remember that king, so long ago
I will soon face again, with but one thing to show
With my friends by my side, and but one thing I know
Ask the Lord where youre going, As you travel afar
To that distant fair city, beyond the last star
With but one thing to carry, but with one gift to bring
A life lived in service to the king of all kings.
