High above a star is shining,
                                        
                                        And the wise men haste from far:
                                        
                                        Come, glad hearts, and spirits pining—
                                        
                                        For you all has ris’n the star.
                                        
                                        Let us bring our poor oblations,
                                        
                                        Thanks and love, and faith and praise;
                                        
                                        Come, ye people, come, ye nations,
                                        
                                        All in all draw nigh to gaze.
