Text: Deep midwinter, the dark centre of the year, Wake, O earth, awake, Out on the hills a star appears, Here lies the way for pilgrim kings, Three magi on an ancient path, Black hours begin their journeyings. Their star has risen in our hearts, Empty thrones, abandoned fears, Out on the hills their journey starts, In dazzling darkness God appears.
