What Child Is This?

What Child Is This?
What child is this
Who laid to rest
Oh Mary's lap sleeping?
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch keeping?

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
Come Peasant, King to own Him
The King of Kings, salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Oh, raise, raise a song on high,
His mother sings her lullaby.
Joy, oh joy for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe,
The Son,
Of Mary.
What Child
Is this
Who laid
To rest
On Mary's lap
On Mary's lap
He is sleeping.
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe,
The Son,
Of Mary
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Son of Mary.
