The first Christmas there were actually FOUR kings who came from the East
searching for the baby Jesus.
They were named Why, What, Where, and a fourth king, Whence. Along the way,
Whence (with no GPS?) took a wrong turn on his camel, separated from the
caravan, and was never seen again.
While kings Why, What and Where who made it to Bethlehem have their own
Christmas song (“We Three Kings”), the missing fourth king is also
immortalized in the traditional song, “Good King Whence is Lost”.
Thought you’d want to know next time you sing carols . .
