WISE MEN
We know wise men sought Jesus
when He was born,
Followed the star that appeared
on that special morn,
Followed it diligently, faith
never wavering
Then finding the child, worshipped
Him with rejoicing .
Those today who seek and find
Him are also wise,
Though they do not have to follow the
star bright in the skies,
For there is true wisdom in seeking
for every single day,
The light of the gospel and it is Jesus
who shows the way.
Be wise and seek the Master in this
world of hate and sin,
If you hear Him knocking, please open
your heart, let Him in.
It is the foolish who think they can
manage in their own,
Can find true happiness in life without
ever being kindly shown
The path that leads to glory, the path
that Jesus did tread,
They will not be like the wise who wish
to be spiritually fed.
Help me to be like the wise men who
followed the star of light,
Bringing my gift of a broken and humble heart,
one truly and completely contrite.
