Lyrics:

Verse 1
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!

Verse 2
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and lamb 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!

Verse 3
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!
The Virgin sings her lullaby.
Joy, joy for Christ is born!
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

This, this is Christ the King!
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
