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?

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
Come rich and poor to own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

This, this is Christ my King
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him
Praise the Babe, the Son of Mary
The Babe, the Son of Mary
