What Child Is This?

What child is this

Who laid to rest

On Mary's lap is sleeping

Whom angels greet with anthem sweet

While shepherds watch are keeping

This this is christ the king

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing

This this is christ the king

The babe the son of mary

So bring him incense gold and myrrh

Come peasant kin to own him

The king of kings salvation brings

Let loving hearts enthrone him

Raise raise the son on high

The virgin sings a lullaby

Joy joy for christ is born

The babe was son of mary
