What Child Is This?

Who laid to rest

On Mary's lap is sleepin'?

Whom angels greet

With anthems sweet

While shepherds

Watch are keepin'?

This, this is

The Christ, the King

Whom Shepherds guard

& angels sing

Haste, haste

To bring him laud

The babe, the Son of Mary

Why lies he in such mean estate

Where ox & ass are feedin'

Good Christians fear for sinners here

The silent word is pleadin'

This, this is

The Christ, the King

Whom Shepherds guard

& angels sing

Hail, hail

The word made flesh

The babe, the Son of Mary

So bring him incense, gold & myrrh

Come, peasant, king, to own Him

The King of kings salvation brings

Let lovin' hearts enthrone him

Raise, raise

The song on high

The virgin sings our lullaby

Joy, Joy

For Christ is born

The babe, the Son of Mary

Joy, Joy

For Christ is born

The babe, the Son of Mary
