What Child Is This 歌詞
What Child Is This - St. Ives
What child is this
Who lay 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 lambs are feeding
Good Christian's fear for sinners here
The silent word is pleading.
Nails' spears shall pierce him through,
The cross they bore 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
Raise, raise a song on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary
The babe, the son of Mary
