Chilled evening skyscape glitters
Starshine brightly, frosted shivers
Shapes heavenward bound
Mysteries ne’er so simply found
Wrap and hoods do shield away
The frigid nighttime’s trembling wake.
Drawing onward towards the sight
The curious twinkle of One so bright
Comrades two and I make three
Seek to find a sight to see.
‘Twas foretold, ’twas in riddle,
Yet easy-read by babes so simple.
We come in hope, in plain foresight
Into this cold and lonely night.
We seek this One Who, though unlikely,
Saves in ways of One so mighty.
In hope, in faith we simply come
To seek the fount of the Merciful One.
They called us wise, yet one need only read
Of the Star of Jacob, of Adam’s Seed.
So in faith we wait; in faith we proceed;
In faith we want; in faith we need;
His Glorious Presence, His Merciful Peace.
