Also known as Three Kings' Day, the feast celebrates the revelation to the Magi that God was before them incarnate. The feast is often taken to be the end of the Christmastide. Some wait to remove decorations, though, until Candlemas.
Here is a famous hymn associated with the feast.
For another, one more time, the Reverend Horton Heat.
I think of that hymn as "For the Beauty of the Earth." We used to sing it in junior high choir. Never be allowed today, of course.
