This is an original song I composed about the Wisemen coming from the East searching for the infant King. When they saw the star, they knew they had to follow it. It is a great song for Epiphany. It contains 3 verses and a bridge. If you think it's too long, you could cut out the bridge. This is for SATB with optional parts for flute, cello and violin accent instruments and piano. It can be sung with solo for verses, adding the harmonies for the refrain and bridge and final ending.Â

Lyrics below:
They Saw a Star
Verse 1:
Three wisemen came from the east
A desert camel, their traveling beast
They traveled far, they traveled wide
Searching for the infant child.
Then they looked toward the sky…..
Â
Refrain:
They saw a star, They saw a star, They saw a star
Lighting up in the darkest night
They saw a star, They saw a star, They saw a star
Oh …..what a wondrous sight
Â
Verse 2:
They followed where the light shown down
And came upon a tiny town
Then they scarce believed their eyes
Where it stopped a big surprise
Then they looked toward the light……
Â
Refrain:
Â
Verse 3:
A crowd of people gathered round
Including shepherds kneeling down
Their flocks of sheep by their side
Then the noise would subside
They made it to the light…….
Â
Bridge:
They saw the tiniest of Kings
Lying in a manger
His mother was close by His side
Keeping him from danger
He was the son of God
The greatest King of Kings
The wisemen brought from their lands
The greatest gifts they could bring.
Â
Final Refrain:
