We Three Kings....
...Has always been one of my favorite Christmas carols. I think as a child, I probably liked the 'Ohhhh...Star of wonder...' part but as I have grown up, my appreciation for this carol has, too.
I like that it is about people who are truly searching for Christ because they want to honor and glorify Him, not just take from Him.
That's not very easily done. I think most of our personal discipleship journeys reach a point where we are struggling with this very thing: The movement from the immature demand that God glorify us through His power to God's being glorified by His strength working in us.
That's what I want to be able to do. I want to stop seeking things for myself and start truly seeking after God.

Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia,
Alleluia
Earth to heav'n replies
O Star of wonder, star of
night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still
proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
