Across the Desert's Sand and Dune

Across the desert's sand and dune
Over the rocky mountain path
On through the scorching heat of noon
Enduring nightime's wintry blast
To Bethlehem
To Bethlehem
Come and worship the Infant King

Disdain the might of earthly kings,
and the priests who this Child ignore
There lies of Whom the Angels sing
And Whom prophets foretold before
To Bethlehem
To Bethlehem
Come and worship the Infant King

The Star shall lead on through the night
To the house where Your God and Lord
Shines, revealing salvation's light
That He might be worshiped, adored.
To Bethlehem
To Bethlehem
Come and worship the Infant King

The gifts there brought declare Him Christ
Gold,that mirrors His own Blood's price
Incense adorns His sacrfice
Myrrh to be His burial spice
To Bethlehem
To Bethlehem
Come and Worship the Infant King

To home return with hearts secure
Rejoicing in the mystery
That God has salvation procured
Shown forth on this Epiphany
Forth and rejoice,
Forth and rejoice
Christ has come, our Savior and King

I'll never forget the word my English teacher circled in a huge red circle on a paper I wrote: IRREGARDLESS was the word!!

So to this day, I cringe when I hear or see the word
"irregardless"... which as I type this word it is underlined in RED!
