What Child Is This |
|
David Archuleta |
|
Christmas From The Heart |
|
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 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. |
|
Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through, |
|
The Cross be borne, for me, for you: |
|
Hail, hail, the Word made flesh, |
|
The Babe, the Son of Mary! |
|
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh; |
|
Come peasant, king to own Him. |
|
The King of Kings salvation brings; |
|
Let loving hearts enthrone Him. |
|
Raise, raise, the song on high, |
|
Joy joy for Christ is born, |
|
The Babe, the Son of Mary! |
