O’er the Hill and O’er the Vale (EN 2755)

EN 2755 O’er the Hill and O’er the Vale

Matt.2.1

Versi Version 1

1

O’er the hill and o’er the vale

Come three kings together,

Caring nought for snow and hail,

Cold, and wind, and weather;

Now on Persia’s sandy plains,

Now where Tigris swells with rains,

They their camels tether;

Now through Syrian lands they go,

Now through Moab, faint and slow,

Now through Edom’s heather.

2

O’er the hill and o’er the vale,

Each king bears a present:

Wise men go a Child to hail,

Monarchs seek a peasant;

And a star in front proceeds,

Over rocks and rivers leads,

Shines with beams incessant.

Therefore onward, onward still!

Ford the stream and climb the hills:

Love makes all things pleasant.

3

He is God ye go to meet;

Therefore incense proffer.

He is King ye go to greet:

Gold is in your coffer.

Also Man He comes to share

Every woe that man can bear:

Tempter, railer, scoffer;

Therefore now against the day,

In the grave where Him they lay,

Myrrh ye also offer.
