What Child Is This?
What child is this who lay to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthem sweet
While shepherds watch our 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 own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

Raise, raise the Son on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, 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, Lord
The Babe, the Son of Mary
