What Child Is This

歌詞

What Child is this who laid to rest On Mary's lap is sleeping? Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet While shepherds watch are keeping This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing Haste, haste to bring Him laud The babe, the Son of Mary Why lies He in such mean estate Where ox and ass are feeding? Good Christians, fear for sinners here The silent word is pleading This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing Haste, haste to bring Him laud The babe, the Son of Mary Nails spear shall pierce Him through The cross be borne for me, for you Hail, hail the word made flesh 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 So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh Come peasant, king to own Him The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing Haste, haste to bring Him laud The babe, the Son of Mary Raise, raise a song on high The virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy for Christ is born The babe, the Son of Mary
