What Child Is This?

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?
 ♪
 So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
 Come peasant king to own him
 The king of kings salvation brings
 Let loving hearts enthrone him
 This, this is Christ the king
 Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
 Haste, haste to bring him laud
 The babe, the son of Mary
 ♪
 Oh raise, raise a song on high
 His mother sings a lullaby
 Joy, oh 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
