Am G
What Child is this who, laid to rest
Am Em
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Am G
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet,
Am E Am
While shepherds watch are keeping?
[CHORUS]
C G
This, this is Christ the King,
Am Em
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing;
C G
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
Am E Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
Am G
Why lies He in such mean estate,
Am E
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Am G
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
Am E Am
The silent Word is pleading.
[CHORUS]
Am G
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Am Em
Come peasant, king to own Him;
Am G
The King of kings salvation brings,
Am E Am
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
[CHORUS]
Am G Am Em
Am G
What Child is this who, laid to rest
Am E Am
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
