What Child Is This

What child is this who laid to rest

On Mary's lap is sleeping

Whom angels great with anthem sweet

While shepherds watch are keeping



This, this is Christ the son

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing

Joy Joy for Christ is born

The babe, the son of Mary



So bring Him incense, gold, and myhr

Come peasant king to own Him

The King of Kings, salvation brings

Let loving hearts enthrone Him



Raise, raise the song on high

The virgin sings her lullabye

Joy Joy for Christ is born

The babe, the son of Mary...
