What Child Is This?

What child is this that lay to rest

On Mary's lap is sleeping

Whom angels greet with anthem sweet

And shepherd's watch are keeping

This, this is Christ the King

Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him love

The babe, the son of Mary

So bring him incense, gold and myrrh

Come peasant king to honour him

The king of kings salvation brings

Let loving arms enthrone him

This, this is Christ the king

Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him love

The babe, the son of Mary

This, this is Christ the king

Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him love

The babe, the son of Mary
