Wise Men Still Seek Him

They traveled to David,
to Bethlehem came
With Mary who was due any day.
But finding no place
where the babe could be born
She laid him on a bed made of hay

There were sheep there and cattle
A donkey and mule
Above them a star brightly shown
And shepherds rejoiced as the angels had said
on that day that the Savior was born.

And wise men came seeking their King and Messiah
with gifts from their hearts they did sing
With tears they rejoiced
as their hearts filled with love
for Jesus, their Savior and King

Jesus grew older
a man he became
His sacrifice blessed the whole earth
We now can return all because of his gift,
Indebted we are for his birth

And wise men still seek him, their King and Messiah
with gifts from their hearts they do sing
With tears they rejoice
as their hearts fill with love
for Jesus, their Savior and King

Some day we will see him, our King and Messiah
with gifts from our hearts we will sing
With tears we’ll rejoice
as our hearts fill with love for Jesus,
for Jesus, our King!
For Jesus, our King!

    Used this for our Ward Christmas program. Choir members loved it. Tears were shed during performance. Thank you for sharing your great talent.

    Our ward choir sang this for Christmas 2 years ago. I keep getting requests to sing it again – and it is a song people tell me they keep singing at Christmas time to themselves in their heads. We all loved it – and I think I will try to do a repeat performance this year. Wonderful song. Thank you SO MUCH.

        Bummer! I was hoping to be able to hear it as well! I can’t read music so I always just go off how it sounds when choosing music to use… any chance of a link to hear this song?

    I love this song. Our ward choir performed this for
    sacrament meeting at Christmas. Every time we practiced it the
    spirit would come into the room. One of my most favorite pieces.
    Thanks you for sharing it with us.

    I love this song, and am introducing it today for our ward choir to sing this Christmas. Is there any chance that there is an obligato part for a flute or violin? I would love to have it if there is. Thanks

    Hi Lindy
    We just sang this beautiful song during our sacrament meeting Christmas program. We really enjoyed the special feeling of the song. Thank you for sharing it. Someone recorded it (wav file). If you or anyone are interested in it I can e-mail it to you. (Sorry there is background noise.)
