verse 1 
Em                B      Em                   B       Em 
We three kings of Orient are bearing gifts we traverse a-far 
Em        D        G       C        Am       B     Em 
Field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star 
Em             B           Em                   B         Em 
Born a king on Bethlehem’s plain, gold I bring to crown Him again, 
Em      D     G                    Am      B      Em 
King forever, ceasing never, over us all to reign. 

 
D    G              C       G                            C     G 
O-oh Star of Wonder, Star of Light, Star with royal beauty bright, 
Em       D        C          D      G                   C       G 
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light. 

verse 2 
Em              B         Em               B    Em 
Frankincense to offer have I, incense owns a Deity nigh, 
Em         D        G     C       Am          B        Em 
Prayer and praising, all in raising, worshipping God most high 
Em             B          Em                  B   Em 
Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and sacrifice 
Em      D   G        Am       B         Em 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah earth to Heaven we rise. 

 
D    G              C       G                            C     G 
O-oh Star of Wonder, Star of Light, Star with royal beauty bright, 
Em       D        C          D      G                   C       G 
Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light.
