What Child Is This?

What Child is This, Who lay 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

To bring Him incense, gold and myrrh

Come peasant King, to only Him

The King of Kings salvation brings

Let loving hearts enthrone Him

Race, race the Son I'll have

The Virgin says, " A lullaby"

Joy, joy for Christ is born

The Babe, the Son of Mary

Good Christian thing for sinners here

The Shining Bird is bleeding

This, this is Christ the King

Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him Lord

The Babe, the Son of Mary, of Mary
