What Child is This

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
So bring him incense gold and myrrh come peasant king to own him
The King of king's 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

Oh raise oh raise this song on high
His mother sings her lullaby
Oh joy oh joy the Christ is born
The babe the son of Mary

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
