Lyrics

[00:16] What child is this
[00:19] who, laid to rest
[00:23] On Mary's lap, is sleeping?
[00:30] Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
[00:37] While shepherds watch are keeping?
[00:45] This, this is Christ the King,
[00:52] Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
[00:59] Haste, haste to bring him laud,
[01:06] The Babe, the Son of Mary! 　　
[01:37] Why lies He in such mean estate,
[01:44] Where ox and ass are feeding?
[01:50] Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
[01:58] The silent Word is pleading.
[02:04] This, this is Christ the King,
[02:11] Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
[02:18] Haste, haste to bring him laud,
[02:24] The Babe, the Son of Mary!
[02:30] So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
[02:37] Come peasant king to own Him,
[02:44] The King of kings, salvation brings,
[02:51] Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
[02:57] Raise, raise the song on high,
[03:04] The Virgin sings her lullaby:
[03:11] Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
[03:17] The Babe, the Son of Mary!
[03:24] This, this is Christ the King,
[03:30] Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
[03:37] Haste, haste to bring him laud,
[03:43] The Babe, the Son of Mary!
[03:57] The Babe, the Son of Mary!
