What Child Is This (Live)

[Verse 1]
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?

[Chorus]
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

[Verse 2]
Why lies he in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent word is pleading

[Chorus]
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

[Verse 3]
So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come, peasant, king, to own him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him

[Chorus]
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary
The babe, the son of Mary
The babe, the son of Mary
