What child is this who laid to rest On Mary's lamp he's sleeping Whom angels greet with anthems sweet When shepherds watch are keeping Why lies he is in such mean estate Where Ox and as are feeding Good Christians fear or sinners here The silent word is pleading This, this is Christ the king Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing Haste, haste to bring him laud The babe, the son of Mary And he shall be called Advocate, lamb of God, judge, Lord of Lord's The resurrection and the life Man of sorrows, head of the church Master, faithful and true witness Rock, the door, high priest Living waters, bread of life Alpha and Omega, true vine, Messiah Teacher, holy one, mediator The beloved, branch, carpenter Good shepherd, light of the world The word, image of the invisible God Chief cornerstone, savior Author and finisher of our faith The almighty everlasting father Lion of the tribe of Judah I am king of kings, prince of peace Bridegroom, only begotten son Wonderful counselor, Immanuel Son of man, king of the Jews Prophet, redeemer, anchor Son of God, bright morning star The way, the truth and the life Jesus Christ So bring him incense, gold and myrrh Come peasant king to own him The king of kings salvation brings While loving hearts enthrone him Raise, raise a song on high The virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy for Christ is born The babe the son of Mary This is, this is Christ the king Whom shepherds guard and angels sing Haste, haste to bring him laud The babe the son of Mary
