| Ch. WeThree kings Special price £3.80 (US$ 6.85, Euro 5.70) Normal Price £5.50 (US $9.90 Euro 8.25)
This lovely carol is associated with Twelfth Night. In most countries it is celebrated as the day the Three Wise Men from the East arrived at the manger in Bethlehem having followed a bright star in the sky. John Hopkins wrote the words and music in the year 1857. In it each of the kings describes the gift he has brought for the Christ Child. It is doubtful now if they were kings as in a later story they are referred to as wise men named Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar.

The inspiration for the famous hymn writer, organist and harpsichordist Charles Wesley (1757-1834) to write the words of this beautiful carol came as he walked to church one Christmas morning in 1830. Later, an organist from Waltham Abbey set it to music by Mendlessohn and it was eventually published in 1856.
