What Child Is This Lyrics

What child is this? Who meant to rest on Mary's lap is sleeping Who 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 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
Nails fierce shall pierce him through The cross be borne for me, for you Hail, hail, the word made flesh Obeyed 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
Praise Him, Son of joy Joy to the risen Lord Praise Him, Son of joy Joy to the risen Lord
This, this is Christ the king Whom shepherds guard and angels sing Haste, haste to bring Him laud The babe, the Son of Mary
