Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Starlight shining down on Bethlehem’s door
Wise men traveling, their hearts set on more
Following a light that led them through the night
To a manger low where hope took flight
They carried treasures, ancient and true
Gold, frankincense, myrrh—what’s the story, what’s the clue?
[Pre-Chorus]
Three gifts, three meanings, wrapped in mystery
Each one a promise, a prophecy
Gold for a king, they came to adore
Frankincense rising, heaven’s own roar
Myrrh, a sacred sign of what’s to come
A Savior’s love, for everyone
[Chorus]
Oh, gold, frankincense, myrrh—bright gifts from afar
Given to the baby, the Morning Star
Gold for His glory, incense for His name
Myrrh for the cross where love would reign
Three gifts, one Savior, heaven’s plan unfurled
Gold, frankincense, myrrh—changing the world
[Verse 2]
Gold like the sun, fit for a royal throne
But He lay in hay, not a palace of stone
Frankincense smoke curling up to the sky
A prayer ascending, “Holy, Most High!”
Myrrh, a perfume rich, used for burial’s rite
A shadow of the day He’d give His life
They didn’t know then how deep the love would go
But their gifts spoke volumes, then and now
[Pre-Chorus]
Three gifts, three meanings, wrapped in mystery
Each one a promise, a prophecy
Gold for a king, they came to adore
Frankincense rising, heaven’s own roar
Myrrh, a sacred sign of what’s to come
A Savior’s love, for everyone
[Chorus]
Oh, gold, frankincense, myrrh—bright gifts from afar
Given to the baby, the Morning Star
Gold for His glory, incense for His name
Myrrh for the cross where love would reign
Three gifts, one Savior, heaven’s plan unfurled
Gold, frankincense, myrrh—changing the world
[Bridge]
Time marches on, but the story remains
Those gifts still whisper through the ages, through the rains
Gold reminds us He’s the King of all
Frankincense calls us to answer when He calls
Myrrh, a symbol of the price He paid
So we could be free, so we could be saved
[Chorus – Repeat]
Oh, gold, frankincense, myrrh—bright gifts from afar
Given to the baby, the Morning Star
Gold for His glory, incense for His name
Myrrh for the cross where love would reign
Three gifts, one Savior, heaven’s plan unfurled
Gold, frankincense, myrrh—changing the world
[Outro]
Gold, frankincense, myrrh—changing the world
Gold, frankincense, myrrh—forever, forever, the world
