The Three Wise Men
The Three Wise Men
by Danny C. WashThe wise men from the east all three
were a heavenly type of the trinity,
who came to Bethlehem in the night,
after days of following the star’s guiding light.
They arrived seeking the prophecy to behold
the One which the words long written of old
by the prophet Micah of the One baby foretold,
Who was to become the Jews future king.
Having arrived where the star would hold,
they entered that place with the gifts they did bring.
They offered gold symbolizing him as a King.
They gave frankincense for worship as divine
and myrrh as an anointing for His death as a sign.
The three fell down to worship and thereby proclaim
His divinity & then left to return from where they came.
O’ holy night, O’ night divine, the angel’s songs acclaim!
