A Charlie Brown Christmas movie - What Child Is This? lyrics

rate me

<br>

What child is this who laid to rest<br>

On Mary's lap is sleeping<br>

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet<br>

While shepherds watch are keeping<br>

<br>

This, this is Christ the King<br>

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing<br>

Haste, haste to bring him laud<br>

The babe, the son of Mary<br>

<br>

Why lies he in such mean estate<br>

Where ox and ass are feeding<br>

Good Christian fear, for sinners here<br>

The silent Word is pleading<br>

<br>

So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh<br>

Come peasant king to own Him<br>

The King of kings, salvation brings<br>

Let loving hearts enthrone Him<br>

<br>

This, this is Christ the King<br>

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing<br>

Haste, haste to bring him laud<br>

The babe, the son of Mary<br>

<br>
