Ouro, Incenso e Mirra
Padre Zezinho
Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh
Three Kings journey from the east
To behold a King newly born
One is said to be white, another the color of a jambu fruit
The third King is black, all came to see
The new King born
Like a star in the sky
The new King born
Like a star in the sky
They say a star, quite unlike any other
Could be seen from the east
Talk of a comet, no one is certain
But through the desert, they came to see
The new King born
Like a star in the sky
The new King born
Like a star in the sky
And they bring gold, frankincense, and myrrh
To celebrate the new King
Who holds power and majesty
Who comes from heaven, who is Godly
Who will suffer, who will die
And who will set us free
And they bring gold, frankincense, and myrrh
To celebrate the new King
Who holds power and majesty
Who comes from heaven, who is Godly
Who will suffer, who will die
And who will set us free
Millions of lives in the West
And in the East suffer oppression
They are of all colors, all fears
All the bitterness of this humiliation
Awaiting liberation
And they all look to the sky
Awaiting liberation
And they all look to the sky
They say a future, very different
This poor folk will yet know
They say it’s certain, that the future is near
That it’s very close, that it starts now!
They look to the King born
Like a star in the sky
They look to the King born
Like a star in the sky
And they bring gold, frankincense, and myrrh
To celebrate the new King
Who holds power and majesty
Who comes from heaven, who is Godly
Who will suffer, who will die
And who will set us free
And they bring gold, frankincense, and myrrh
To celebrate the new King
Who holds power and majesty
Who comes from heaven, who is Godly
Who will suffer, who will die
And who will set us free
