 “Always Seeking”

REGENT SQUARE 8.7.8.7.8.7 (“Angels From the Realms of Glory”)

Text: Anna Strickland, 2022

Music: Henry Thomas Smart, 1866

As the wise men scanned the heavens

There they saw Christ’s natal star

Then began the long procession

Seeking him in country far

Refrain:
Always seeking, moving onward

Following where God may lead

When they reached King Herod’s palace

Asking where to find the child

Herod schemed in all his malice

This new king himself to find

Refrain

Fleeing from the wrath of Herod

Joseph led his family

Seeking in the desert arid

Safety there as refugees

Refrain

Seeking signs or seeking power

Seeking safety, seeking home

Day by day and hour by hour

We press on toward the unknown

Refrain
