Angels on Journey
A journey to Bethlehem
Watching, guiding, and praying
Angels on Journey with the wise men on journey

Wise men on travel
Journey to Bethlehem
Many days, many seasons, and many climates they faced
On the journey to Bethlehem
Night time travel posed challenge on the way
Focused faithful on journey
Wise men continued in great courage
In thanking God on the way
Scientific zeal in their goal
Rational mind in their thoughts
Logical reasoning in predicting
Heavenly king's birth on earth
Earthly kings the wise men
Received divine signal in wonder star
Captivated in soul
Motivated their journey

They travel among
Clear starry skies many nights
They travel among
Cloudy skies many nights
They travel on growing moons
They travel on descending moons
They tread in the light
And they travel in the dark
They travel in clear vision of star
And they travel in unclear predictions
They travel in the rains
And they travel with thunders and lightening
They travel with breeze
And they travel with storms and hails
They travel in hot and sultery nights
And they they travel in soothing breezy nights
They travel in cold nights
And they travel in snowy silver nights
They travel in vibrant golden summer evenings
And they travel in silent still silvery cold nights
In all the seasons they travel
In the look out for the wonder star
In anticipation of the heavenly kIng
Wise men on Journey to Bethlehem!
Angels on Journey
Holy Angels on Journey
Along with the wise men
On the Journey to Bethlehem
Singing Gloria in Heaven
Singing good will to the men
Angels on rounds
Holy Angels on rounds
