Long Years Ago

Long years ago, wise men with joy

Representative Text

Long years ago
Wise men with joy
Brought birthday gifts
To a small boy.
From the East they came,
Thro’ deserts wild,
And they brought their best
For a little child.
Long years have passed,
And Christmas joys
Fill the whole wide world
For girls and boys.
