What Child Is This Lyrics
What Child Is This - Jeannie Seely
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 love
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
