Jane Siberry - What Child Is This? lyrics

rate me

What child is this who's laid to rest

on Mary's lap is sleeping?

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet

while shepherd's watch are keeping

This this is Christ the King

whom shepherds guard

and angels sing

Haste! haste! to bring him, Lord!

the babe, the son of Mary

So bring him incense, gold and myrrh

come peasant, king to all of him

The king of kings

celebration brings

That loving hearts enthrone him

Raise! Raise! The song on high!

The virgin sings her lullaby

Joy! Joy! For Christ is born!

The babe, the son of Mary
