| What Child Is This |
| |
| 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? |
| |
| This, this is Christ the King |
| Whom shepherds gaurd and angels sing |
| Haste, haste to bring Him laud |
| The Babe, the son of Mary |
| |
| Why lies He in such mean estate |
| Where ox and ass are feeding? |
| Good Christian, fear; for sinners here |
| The silent Word is pleading |
| |
| So bring Him incence, gold and myrrh |
| Come, peasant, king, to own Him |
| The King of kings salvation brings |
| Let loving hearts enthrone Him |
| |
