This popular carol was composed by John Henry Hopkins, rector of Christ Episcopal Church in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Although he originally worked as a journalist for a New York newspaper and studied to become a lawyer, he chose to join the clergy after graduating from college. Hopkins wrote “We Three Kings” for a Christmas pageant in 1857. (Computer generated audio by Finale.)
