What Child is this that lay to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom Angels greet with anthem sweet
And Shepard's watch are keeping
This, this is Christ the King
Whom Shepard's guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him love
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
And loving arms enthrone Him
This, this is Christ the King
Whom Shepard's guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him love
The Babe, the Son of Mary
This, this is Christ the King
Whom Shepard's guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him love
The Babe, the Son of Mary
