1. The wise may bring their learning, The rich may bring their wealth, And some may bring their greatness, And some bring strength and health: We, too, would bring our treasures To offer to the King; We have no wealth or learning What shall we children bring?

2. We'll bring to him the duties We have to do each day; We'll try our best to please him, At home, at school, at play: And better are these treasures To offer to our King Than richest gifts without them; Yet these a child may bring.

3. We'll bring him hearts that love him, We'll bring him thankful praise, And souls for ever striving To follow in his ways: And these shall be the treasures We offer to the King, And these are gifts that even The poorest child may bring.
