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, Lord
The Babe, the Son of Mary
So, bring Him incense, bring Him gold
Come peasant, king, to own Him
The King of kings, salvation brings
Let 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
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
Raise, raise the song on high
The Virgin sings Her lullaby
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary
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, Lord
The Babe, the Son of Mary
So, bring Him incense, bring Him gold
Come peasant, king, to own Him
The King of kings, salvation brings
Let 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
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
Raise, raise the song on high
The Virgin sings Her lullaby
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary
