Em
What Child is this who, laid to rest
   E
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
     Em
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet,
      Am
While shepherds watch are keeping?


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


    Em
Why lies He in such mean estate,
      E
Where ox and ass are feeding?
     Em
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
    Am
The silent Word is pleading.

Em
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
    E
The cross be borne for me, for you.
Em
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
    Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary.


   Em
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
     E
Come peasant, king to own Him;
    Em
The King of kings salvation brings,
    Am
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.


Em
Raise, raise a song on high,
    E
The virgin sings her lullaby.
Em
Joy, joy for Christ is born,
    Am
