We Three Kings (Of Orient Are)chords
Hopkins
Em B7 Em
We three kings of Orient are
Em B7 Em
Bearing gifts we traverse afar.
Em D G
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Am Em B7 Em
Following yonder star.
D D7 G C G
Oh, star of wonder, star of night,
C G
Star with royal beauty bright,
Em D C D
Westward leading, still proceeding,
G C G
Guide us to thy perfect Light.
Em B7 Em
Born a king on Bethlehem's plain,
Em B7 Em
Gold I bring to crown Him again,
Em D G
King forever, ceasing never
Am Em B7 Em
Over us all to reign.

Breaths a life of gathering gloom.

Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
