360- From the Eastern Mountains
Christian Church: Mission of the Church
1
- From the eastern mountains
- Pressing on they come,
- Wise men in their wisdom,
- To His humble home;
- Stirred by deep devotion,
- Hasting from afar,
- Ever journeying onward,
- Guided by a star.
2
- There their Lord and Savior
- Meek and lowly lay,
- Wondrous light that led them
- Onward on their way,
- Ever now to lighten
- Nations from afar,
- As they journey homeward
- By that guiding star.
3
- Gather in the outcasts
- All who've gone astray,
- Throw Thy radiance o'er them,
- Guide them on their way;
- Those who never knew Thee,
- Those who've wandered far,
- Guide them by the brightness
- Of Thy guiding star.
4
- Until every nation,
- Whether bond or free,
- 'Neath Thy starlit banner,
- Jesus follows thee.
- O'er the distant mountains
- To that heavenly home,
- Where no sin nor sorrow
- Evermore shall come.
