The Magi Lyrics
WHEN JESUS WAS BORN IN BETHLEHEM
THE MAGI RODE IN TO JERUSALEM
TIRED FROM THEIR JOURNEY
DUSTY AND DRY
WELL THEY FOLLWED THE STAR IN THE EASTERN SKY
… FOLLOWED THE STAR IN THE EASTERN SKY
WELL THEY WENT TO KING HEROD AND THEY TOLD HIM THE NEWS
THAT STAR MARKS THE BIRTH OF THE KING OF THE JEWS
SHOW US THE PLACE
FOR FAR WE HAVE COME
AND WE WANT TO WORSHIP GOD’S NEW BORN SON
…WE WANT TO WORSHIP GOD’S NEW BORN SON
HEROD GATEHRED THE TEACHERS AND THE PRIESTS FOR ADVICE
WHERE WILL THIS HAPPEN
THIS BIRTH OF THE CHRIST
THEY SAID UP IN JUDEA AS IT WAS FORETOLD
BY THE PROPHET ISAIAH IN THE DAYS OF OLD
… THE PROPHET ISAIAH IN THE DAYS OF OLD
WELL NOW MAGI THERE’S A NEW KING TO SEE
WHEN YOU FIND HIM SAID HEROD
REPORT BACK TO ME
FOR I WISH TO WORSHIP THIS KING IF I CAN
BUT KING HEROD WAS HATCHING A DEADLY PLAN
…HEROD WAS HATCHING A DEADLY PLAN
MAGI FOLLOWED THE STAR AND THEY WERE FILLED WITH JOY
WHEN THEY FOUND MARY AND HER PRECIOUS BOY
THEY BOWED DOWN RIGHT THERE

AND THEY WORSHIPPED THE CHRIST
LAYING TREASURES OF GOLD AND PRECIOUS SPICE
…TREASURES OF GOLD AND PRECIOUS SPICE
WELL THOSE WISEMEN CALLED MAGI WERE WARNED IN A DREAM
OF EVIL KING HEROD’S MURDEROUS SCHEME
THEY FOUND THE MESSIAH
GOD’S GREAT HIGH PRIEST
SO THEY HITCHED UP AND RODE BACK TOWARDS THE EAST
…HITCHED UP AND RODE BACK TOWARDS THE EAST
THOSE MAGI WERE WISE AND ONE THING IS TRUE…
IF YOU WANT TO BE WISE YOU WILL SEEK HIM TOO
IF YOU WANT TO BE WISE YOU’LL SEEK JESUS
YOU’LL SEEK HIM TOO
