What child is this who lay to rest |
|
On Mary's lap is sleeping |
|
Whom angels greet with anthem sweet |
|
While shepherd's watch are keeping |
|
This, this is Christ the King |
|
Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing |
|
Haste, haste to bring Him love |
|
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 |
|
Mary's sweet Child [Incomprehensible] |
|
The cross he'll hold for me, for you |
|
Heaven, heaven [Incomprehensible] |
|
The babe, the son of Mary |
|
So bring Him incense, gold and mirth |
|
Come peasants king to honor Him |
|
The King of Kings salvation brings |
|
Let loving arms enthrone Him |
