What Child is this who, laid to rest
What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap, is sleeping?
On Mary's lap, is she sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
Whom angels greet with sweet anthems
While shepherds watch are keeping?
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
Why lies He in such mean estate
Why lies He in such mean summer
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading
The silent Word is pleading
Nails, spear shall pierce him through
Nails, spear shall pierce him through
The Cross be borne for me, for you
The Cross be borne for me, for you
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant, king to own Him
Like peasant, king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings
The King of kings brings salvation
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
Raise, raise, the song on high
Raise, raise, the song on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
