What Child Is This (Lamb Of God)
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
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 laud
The Babe the Son of Mary
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christian fear for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading
Nails spear shall pierce Him through
The cross be borne for me for you
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
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
The Lamb of God was born that day
The gates of hell did shake
And heaven cheered in confidence
The curse of sin would break
All glory to the Prince of Peace
For hope had come to us
The Savior of humanity is Jesus, Jesus
The Lamb of God was born that day
The gates of hell did shake
And heaven cheered in confidence
The curse of sin would break
All glory to the Prince of Peace
For hope had come to us
The Savior of humanity is Jesus, Jesus
Raise, raise the song 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 laud
The Babe the Son of Mary
The Babe the Son of Mary
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping
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 laud
The Babe the Son of Mary
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christian fear for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading
Nails spear shall pierce Him through
The cross be borne for me for you
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
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
The Lamb of God was born that day
The gates of hell did shake
And heaven cheered in confidence
The curse of sin would break
All glory to the Prince of Peace
For hope had come to us
The Savior of humanity is Jesus, Jesus
The Lamb of God was born that day
The gates of hell did shake
And heaven cheered in confidence
The curse of sin would break
All glory to the Prince of Peace
For hope had come to us
The Savior of humanity is Jesus, Jesus
Raise, raise the song 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 laud
The Babe the Son of Mary
The Babe the Son of Mary
