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.
|
|
cho: This, this is Christ the King,
|
Whom shepherds guard 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 incense, gold and myrrh
|
Come, peasant, King to own Him;
|
The King of Kings salvation brings
|
Let loving hearts enthrone him
|
|
