lyrics

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 worship and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him praise, the babe, the son of Mary.

Why lies he insuch mean es tate, where ox and ass are feeding?
Come have no fear, God’s Son is here, his love all loves exceding.
Nails, nails spear shall pierce him through, the cross be borne for me, for you:
Hail, hail the saviour comes, the babe, the son of Mary.

So bring him incense, gold and myrrh,all tongues and peoples own him.
The King of kings salvation brings, let every heart enthrone him:
Raise, raise your song on high while Mary sings a lullaby;
Joy, joy for Christ is born, the babe, the son of Mary.
