What child is this, who, laid to rest, On Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Gbm E Gbm Db Gbm
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Dbm A E Gbm Db Gbm
Haste, haste to bring Him laud, The babe, the son of Mary.
[[Full Lyrics]] [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? [Refrain] 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. [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.
