Epiphany is Here!

Epiphany is here!
IN DULCI JUBILO 6.6.7.2.7.7.8.5.5 ("Good Christian Friends Rejoice")

Epiphany is here!
And from the East appear
Magi seeking out the news:
Where? Where?
“Where’s the child, king of the Jews?”
Herod heard and was afraid.
In Bethlehem the babe was laid.
“Who could be this King?”
“Who could be this King?”

Epiphany is here!
When Herod, filled with fear
Sent the Wise Ones out to see:
Who? Who?
Who this child could really be.
But his actions were not pure
and in his heart a hatred stirred.
“Tell me when he’s found!”
“Tell me when he’s found!”

Epiphany is here!
The Wise Ones did adhere.
Finally, the star had stopped!
Joy! Joy!
Here, the child that they had sought!
“Frankincense, gold, myrrh, we bring
to lay before the infant king!”
As it was foretold!
As it was foretold!
