We Three Kings of Orient Are Fact

Since I was on a roll with all of the Christmas carol random facts, I decided to do one more song, We Three Kings. Well, I call it that, but I guess it's called We Three Kings of Orient Are.

• Written by Reverend John Henry Hopkins Jr. in 1857.

• The words & music were written as part of a Christmas pageant at the General Theological Seminary.

• Hopkins was also an author, illustrator, editor & stained glass window designer.
